World Press Freedom Day

World Press Freedom Day, observed annually on May 3, commemorates a vital moment in the fight for journalistic independence. In 1991, African journalists initiated the first campaign for press freedom, culminating in the Declaration of Windhoek—a landmark statement advocating for an independent and pluralistic African press. Just two years later, the United Nations General Assembly formally declared May 3 as World Press Freedom Day, recognizing the fundamental importance of press freedom in fostering democratic societies worldwide. Each year, UNESCO awards the Guillermo Cano World Press Freedom Prize on May 3 to individuals or institutions who have demonstrated exceptional commitment to advancing press freedom. This prestigious accolade serves as a beacon of recognition for those who tirelessly champion the principles of free expression and journalistic integrity.
