Hello, communicators:

This year’s World Press Freedom Day took place on May 3 under the theme of “information as a public good,” as news organizations and nonprofits across the globe encouraged conversations around how the production and distribution of journalism can be refined to promote transparency and empower the disenfranchised.

“The day was declared by the U.N. General Assembly in 1993,” reports Newsweek. “It marks the date of the Windhoek Declaration – a statement of principles for the free press drawn up by African journalists in 1991.”

“It calls attention to the essential role of free and professional journalists in producing and disseminating this information, by tackling misinformation and other harmful content,” UNESCO Director-General Audrey Azoulay said in a statement.
