The data used in this Monument is drawn from a database of attacks on the press compiled by the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ). Due to the time needed to verify each new case, it is possible that recent events have not yet been added to the Monument.
A journalist is murdered every week.
Through our cold case investigations, we have provided relatives and loved ones of murdered journalists with a way to be heard; (re)open domestic criminal proceedings; and emboldened advocacy efforts.
Our investigations and court hearings continue. Sign up to our email list to be periodically updated on our impact and investigations.

Free Press Unlimited's mission is to ensure that independent news and information remains available to everyone. This helps people control their living conditions, develop themselves and monitor their governments. To achieve this, Free Press Unlimited collaborates with local media organisations and journalists, particularly in countries with limited (press)freedom. These media and journalists are close to their audience and therefore the best guarantee for a sustainable, professional and diverse media landscape. Free Press Unlimited's vision is short and to the point: People deserve to know. All over the world.
