What does RSF mean in NEWS & MEDIA

Reporters Sans Frontiers (RSF) is a non-profit organisation that defends freedom of information and the safety of journalists worldwide. It was founded in 1985 with the aim to protect freedom of the press and media rights in some countries around the world. RSF promotes freedom of opinion, defends free flow of information, fights self-censorship and provides assistance to persecuted reporters.

Reporters Sans Frontiers works tirelessly towards creating a safe environment for professional and citizen journalists operating around the world by providing emergency assistance when needed, offering legal protection where possible and launching advocacy campaigns whenever necessary. They also have a network of contacts who warn journalists if they sense a potential threat in their coverage area along with other measures such as supporting ‘citizen journalism’ initiatives that provide training and resources so people can tell stories safely without risking being put into difficult situations by oppressive governments.

Reporters Sans Frontiers actively defends media freedom by challenging authoritarian regimes that attempt to restrict free speech through sanctions against reporters such as detainment or defamation suits that limit independent reporting capabilities; providing support for persecuted reporters; advocating for increased legal protection of press freedoms; engaging international institutions like the United Nations (UN) so they uphold their Declaration of Human Rights; setting up networks for investigative journalism projects; monitoring cyber attacks against online content providers; working towards decriminalising defamation law globally; pressuring governments through campaigning tools like petitions and public mobilisation.

Reporters sans frontiers does not offer formal membership programs however you can become an active member of its networks through taking part in debates and discussions regarding media freedoms as well as protests organised by them around the world.
