If everything is alright in the news, something must be wrong with journalism.
Without press freedom, there are no #HumanRights. Freedom of speech underpins the protection of all other rights.
On #WorldPressFreedomDay & every day, join @UNESCO’s call to defend #PressFreedom!

But in Afghanistan, they are deprived of access to school.
On #EducationDay, raise your voice to #LetAfghanGirlsLearn!
