Change
Journalism for social change: a thematic series that OBC Transeuropa dedicated - in the context of the ECPMF project - to journalistic initiatives that foster high-quality reporting, promoting and strengthening democratic values and fundamental rights in European societies.
In an editorial published on World Press freedom Day, Mogens Blicher Bjerregård, President of the European Federation of Journalists (EFJ) discusses the battle between the media and politics in Europe and how it is reshaping the challenges facing journalists in their daily work.
