“Kashif participates in the ‘Different Day’ conference in Brussels on the occasion of World Press Freedom Day.”

Kashif participated in the “Difference Day” conference in Brussels, marking the thirtieth anniversary of the adoption of May 3rd by the United Nations as World Press Freedom Day.

The conference, in its various sessions, discussed several issues including freedom of expression as a driver for other human rights, protecting journalists worldwide, and shedding light on the issues of migrants and border crossers.

The issue of misleading information and hate speech on social media platforms and reputation smear campaigns, especially against female journalists, was addressed. Discussions also focused on how to limit this harmful content without compromising freedom of expression.

On this occasion, Kashif calls for the adoption of a right to information law in Palestine, as press freedom and reliable reporting cannot be complete without free access to information.
