World Press Freedom Day

The World Association of Newspapers invites you to join in the World Press Freedom Day campaign which is dedicated this year to press freedom in China, the world's biggest jailer of journalists.

More than 30 journalists and 50 cyber-dissidents are locked up in its prisons.

On 3 May, thousands of newspapers worldwide will show their support for press freedom by publishing materials made available by WAN. These materials provide a multimedia, in-depth look at the Chinese press freedom situation, including:

- Cartoons created by noted French cartoonist Michel Cambon about China's failure to live up to its Olympic promises of reform. Available at:
http://www.wan-press.org/3may/2008/cartoons.php?id=656

- Public service advertisements created by major advertising agencies and by WAN, drawing attention to China's lack of press freedom as viewers watch and enjoy the Olympic Games. Available at
http://www.wan-press.org/3may/2008/articles.php?id=699

- Editorials by well known Chinese journalists and others, to run on op-ed pages on 3 May. Available at
http://www.wan-press.org/3may/2008/texts.php?id=635

- Interactive maps and infographics showing where journalists were killed, arrested and imprisoned world-wide in 2007. Available at
http://www.wan-press.org/3may/2008/articles.php?id=649

- Photographs that newspapers can use to illustrate the articles and other materials, provided by Agence France-Presse expressly for the World Press Freedom Day initiative. Available at
http://www.wan-press.org/3may/2008/photos.php?id=663

- Special features to be used in Young Reader programmes that encourage young people to become aware and active in the fight for press freedom in China. Available at http://www.wan-press.org/3may/2008/articles.php?id=691

The materials, which newspapers can use without charge, are available in English, French, Spanish, German, Russian and Chinese. For full details, go to http://www.worldpressfreedomday.org

We hope that you will join newspapers from around the world and use these materials so that your audience will be informed of the press freedom situation in China on 3 May. With your support and a record number of foreign journalists headed for Beijing for the Summer Olympics, we are sure to maximise awareness of this critical situation.
