Council of Europe seeks feedback on free expression report

The Council of Europe is seeking opinions from journalists and other citizens on the topic of freedom of expression in times of crisis. The body?s Media Division has posted a series of questions online in an effort to get input from anyone interested in the issue. The Media Division has published a report on ‘international standards of freedom of expression and information in times of crisis.’ The division is now seeking public feedback on the report and issues related to that theme. For example, it is welcoming any proposals or ideas on how to guarantee that freedom of expression is protected during crises that could include international or inter-ethnic conflict. The report and questions are available at http://www.coe.int/T/E/human_rights/media/Links/Events/MCSICPublicConsult_en.asp
