“Journalism Under Digital Siege”: Digital challenges in relation to media and press freedom

World Press Freedom Day Post 2022

This year’s edition will focus on the theme:” Journalism under Surveillance”, to spotlight the multifaceted ways in which recent developments in surveillance by state and non-state actors, as well as big data collection and artificial intelligence (AI), impact journalism, freedom of expression and privacy.

Also, under the spotlight will be the associated challenges to media viability in digital times, threats to the public trust that arise from surveillance and digitally-mediated attacks on journalists, and the consequences of all this on public trust in digital communications.
