September 28 will mark the International Day for Universal Access to Information. Let’s join the claim to protect journalist’s rights and ensure media editorial independence, which is a claim to respect people’s right to know. Across #Europe, governments and political parties are targeting independent media groups through smear campaigns and arbitrary regulations. They are also blocking journalists from attending political rallies, and the ones who attend face the risk of illegal detention and violence. Civitates calls on governments, policy makers, and human rights defenders, to pay closer attention to the growing insecurity of journalists in Europe and calls on private and public funders to increase their support to build resilience against disinformation.

Civitates’ family keeps growing! We recently welcomed Luminate into our community of partner foundations, and we are excited for the new projects ahead. 🎉 This collaboration will allow us to continue supporting the enforcement of the Digital Services Act at national level. Since the European Union 🌍 approved this set of regulations to promote a safer digital space, we have been resourcing organisations that work to expand them in European countries. Luminate’s contribution will multiply this effort. #partnerships #europe #civitates #civitateseu #EuropeanUnion #DSA

And we are up to the challenge! Are you ready? Subscribe to our newsletter so you don’t miss any details of our future projects for 2025.
