Article 19: Global Campaign for Free Expression
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- ARTICLE 19 is an international human rights organisation which defends and promotes freedom of expression and freedom of information all over the world.
- Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; the right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media regardless of frontiers.
- ARTICLE 19 believes that freedom of expression and access to information is not a luxury but a fundamental human right. The full enjoyment of this right is the most potent force to pre-empt repression, conflict, war and genocide; it is central to achieving individual freedoms and developing democracy.
