MissionThe Committee to Protect Journalists promotes press freedom worldwide and defends the right of journalists to report the news without fear of reprisal. CPJ ensures the free flow of news and commentary by taking action wherever journalists are attacked, imprisoned, killed, kidnapped, threatened, censored, or harassed. Hundreds of journalists are killed, harassed, or imprisoned every year. For more than 35 years, the Committee to Protect Journalists has been there to defend them worldwide.MissionDesc

DescIn 2018, CPJ program research and advocacy helped win the early release from prison of at least 80 journalists globally, secured convictions in the convictions of six journalist murders, and provided financial and non-financial assistance to 115 journalists.CPJs regional programs cover Africa, the Americas, Asia, Europe and Central Asia, and the Middle East and North Africa and are led by experts from all over the world who report daily on press freedom abuses. Our staff in New York and Washington, D.C., which works closely with CPJ correspondents in 15 global cities. CPJs International Program Network includes team members in Bangkok, Beirut, Brussels, Delhi, Istanbul, Managua, Mexico City, and Nairobi. Our advocacy team engages with U.S., EU, and U.N. leaders, and leaders from other countries, to promote press freedom. Our Emergencies Response Team provides proactive and reactive support to journalists working in hostile environments globally. We offer physical and digital safety information as well as direct assistance, including legal funds, evacuation assistance, and medical care. In 2018, CPJ provided financial and non-financial support to 115 journalists and approved more than $230,000 in grants to journalists from countries including Venezuela, Syria, and Uzbekistan.CPJ also works with local, regional, and international media and human rights groups to maintain a global presence. CPJ has vast international networks and collaborative relationships with local and international freedom of expression and human rights groups, including Human Rights Watch, Article 19, International PEN, and Reporters Sans Frontires. CPJ is a founding member of IFEX, an organization of 95 global freedom of expression groups. When a small group of U.S. journalists formed CPJ in 1981, it was to defend the rights of their colleagues abroad. We continue to do so. Today, CPJ is recognized as a leader in the press freedom movement. CPJ takes action when journalists are under threat in relation to their work, using every tool of journalism to advance our mission. The organization's meticulous reporting and documentation help propel its advocacy. CPJ research consists of data collected using the most stringent guidelines, and its database of journalists killed in the line of duty is the only one of its kind in the world. CPJs reportingwhich includes alerts, blogs, letters, statements, press releases, and special reportsis amplified by media coverage and social media. Our editorial department works with our regional teams to publish our work, which is available online at https://cpj.org. In 2018, CPJ was cited in more than 50,000 news reports all over the world. Over the past three years, CPJ has recorded the highest numbers of jailed journalists since we began keeping track. At least 251 journalists were jailed in late 2018, CPJ found, and consecutive records were set in 2016, with 259 journalists behind bars, and 2017, with 262 imprisoned journalists. This, it seems, is the new norm. But that's why CPJs work is so important. We document each journalist's imprisonment and advocate on their behalf. We carry out annual Free the Press campaigns and raise this issue in meetings with government leaders. And our advocacy worksin 2018, CPJ advocacy helped secure the early release of 80 imprisoned journalists, surpassing our record from 2017, when we helped win freedom for 75 jailed journalists.Murder is the ultimate form of censorship, and impunity breeds fear. That is why CPJ has carried out a global campaign for justice in journalist murders for the past 11 years. Of the 865 journalists who have been murdered since 1992, when CPJ began keeping records, there has been no resolution in 740or 86 percentof their cases. But CPJ is committed to fighting for justice. We report on and document each case, meet with government officials, and highlight the issue in our work. Since 2013, CPJ has contributed to securing convictions in the murders of 38 journalists, including six in 2018.In October 2018, Jamal Khashoggi, a Washington Post columnist and prominent Saudi journalist, was murdered in the Saudi consulate in Istanbul. In November, CPJ Executive Director Joel Simon outlined the paths to justice in the case, including an international investigation by the U.N. On January 10, CPJ joined lawmakers and advocates at an event marking 100 days since Khashoggis murder. CPJs Middle East and North Africa program coordinator, Sherif Mansour, made remarks, as did U.S. Reps. Adam Schiff, Steve Chabot, and Jackie Speier, who cited CPJ data. A visual CPJ created to highlight journalist murders was prominently displayed at the event. Washington Post publisher Fred Ryan also spoke: Jamals killing is part of an escalating attack against press freedom that is being waged by tyrants around the world.In October, CPJ joined a group of international organizations on a mission to Malta to call for justice in the murder of Maltese journalist Daphne Caruana Galizia. The groups met with Prime Minister Joseph Muscat and other officials responsible for ensuring the journalist's killers are brought to account. We also spoke to Caruana Galizias colleagues at the Malta Independent. In a press conference, the groups published a joint statement of their findings from the mission. CPJ also pushes for positive legal reform in countries where authorities use repressive legislation to crack down on critical reporting. In 2018, CPJ won at least four policy changes: in Gambia, where in May the Supreme Court declared criminal defamation unconstitutional; in Lesotho, where, the same month, the Constitutional Court found criminal defamation was unconstitutional; in Malaysia, where in August authorities repealed the country's fake news law that was enacted in early 2018; and in Maldives, where after years of CPJ advocacy the government repealed the country's defamation law. In addition, following a CPJ meeting with high-level Ecuadoran government officials in May, the president announced he would reform the country's restrictive Communications Law in 2018.We are also focused on defending journalists in the U.S., where press freedom and free expression are under pressure following the election of President Donald J. Trump. In 2017, CPJ co-launched the U.S. Press Freedom Tracker, and by the end of 2018 the website had documented 48 arrests of journalists in the U.S. and assaults on 81 others, as well as cases of equipment seizures, border stops, and leak prosecutions. This data enables journalists and advocates to identify patterns in incidents, better formulate advocacy objectives, and situate press freedom in the public conversation. CPJ chairs the steering committee, which is a partnership of more than 30 groups.Despite successes for CPJ over the years, the challenges to press freedom are intensifying. The number of journalists imprisoned for their work has reached record highs. Violence perpetrated by organized crime and paramilitary groups remains a threat. Repressive governments use anti-terror laws as a pretense to crack down on the media. Content moderation and internet shutdowns enable mass censorship, and technology exported by democratic countries is used to surveil journalists. CPJ must confront these and other threats to journalists aggressively in order to uphold a free press globally. In 2018 CPJ established a 2019-2021 Strategic Plan, which enabled us to plan a roadmap of where we must focus our efforts. CPJ believes that press freedom is a fundamental human right, essential to democracy, accountability, and global security, so we will embrace new forms of journalism that reach and engage a broader segment of the global public. We plan to drive home the critical link between a free press and democratic elections and describe how the fake news rhetoric is providing a dangerous framework for repression. We will also work with tech companies to create an online environment that is safe for independent journalists. Meanwhile, we will also continue to do what we do best: defend press freedom principles and the rights of journalists around the world.CPJs 2018 International Press Freedom Awards dinner, which honored brave international journalists who have faced dangers in the pursuit of their work, raised $2.2 million for CPJ, a record high. CPJ awarded Vietnamese blogger Nguy?n Ng?c Nhu Qu?nh, also known by her penname Me Nam or Mother Mushroom; Amal Khalifa Idris Habbani, a Sudanese freelance journalist; Ukrainian broadcast journalist Anastasiya Stanko; and Venezuelan journalist Luz Mely Reyes, co-founder of the independent news website Efecto Cocuyo. CPJ honored Maria Ressa, editor and CEO of the Philippine news website Rappler, with its 2018 Gwen Ifill Press Freedom Award. Ressa, who has been targeted by the Philippine government, flew back to the Philippines after CPJs dinner and learned that a warrant had been issued for her arrest. She then turned herself in to Philippine authorities. We atDesc
