The 2023 edition of the World Press Freedom Day Global Conference will be hosted at the United Nations (UN) Headquarters in New York on 2 May, reports ITREALMS.

This, ITREALMS gathered, is a special anniversary edition of the conference as it marks the 30th anniversary since the proclamation of World Press Freedom Day by the UN General Assembly at its 48th session in 1993.

ITREALMS also recalled that over the past 30 years, World Press Freedom Day celebrations have garnered interest globally, giving prominence to the right to free expression and emphasizing various aspects of press freedom’s importance.

Rights activists have pointed out that in the face of multiple crises, media freedom, journalist safety, and freedom of expression, as well as other human rights are increasingly under attack.
