Committee to Protect Journalists

The Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) is a non-profit organization that campaigns for press freedom and protects journalists from persecution and violence. Founded in 1981, the CPJ has been monitoring threats to journalists globally, particularly in regions with restricted media freedoms. Recent events highlight the organization's concerns about crackdowns on free speech, journalist detentions, and attacks on media professionals. The CPJ has issued statements and reports condemning these incidents, calling for investigations and advocating for journalists' rights. With its global presence and expertise, the CPJ plays a crucial role in promoting press freedom and holding governments accountable for protecting journalists.
