Taking stock:  

Between January and June 2025, the Media Freedom Rapid Response (MFRR) documented 709 press freedom violations against 1249 media workers in 36 European countries. In this webinar, we will take a look at what types of attacks media workers faced, who attacked them, and in what context. We will zoom in on developments in four focus countries – Georgia, Serbia, Romania, and Bosnia and Herzegovina – where media workers operated under severe pressure these first six months. Foreign agent laws and narratives are also highlighted as a worrying trend that threatens independent journalists and media outlets in Europe. 

Join us on September 18 to discuss an overview of the report with a special focus on Georgia, Serbia, Romania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and foreign agent narratives.
