The AFP raids in 2019 shone a light on press freedom issues in Australia. However, our record more generally for press freedom is relatively lacklustre – last year we were 25th in the world according to Reporters Without Borders. New Zealand was eighth – https://rsf.org/en/index?year=2021 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Press_Freedom_Index
Hence the importance of the Alliance for Journalists’ Freedom (AJF), an organisation that works with governments on initiatives to improve our press freedoms. Its work will hopefully help prevent a repeat of the raids on the ABC studios and Annika Smethurst’s home, in June 2019.
Today is World Press Freedom Day. Here, Lesley Power, the new CEO for the AJF, a media lawyer and formerly general counsel for SBS, talks to the AJF’s chair, Peter Wilkinson about the projects for 2022 aimed at improving press freedoms in Australia.
