The Chartered Institute of Journalists remembers all the professional journalists and media workers murdered and killed while doing their work this year in all parts of the world and remember the immense sacrifice of those who gave their lives to the profession in the past. We send our condolences to their families, friends and professional colleagues.
Chartered Institute of Journalists wish to make it absolutely clear that all our reporting of stories about journalism saying 'reports' ‘writes for’ 'briefing' or attribution followed by colon, does not imply or mean our agreement or endorsing with the quoted headline or linked story. Our policy is neutral reportage, impartiality & apolitical.

The Institute calls on Belarus to release journalists and media workers detained for political reasons. Belarus is currently ranked 166th out of 180 countries in the World Press Freedom Index. See: https://rsf.org/en/country/belarus RSF states: 'To silence independent journalists, the authorities have resorted to state-sponsored terrorism, including censorship, violence, mass arrests, and coordinated raids on homes and media offices, as well as disbanding the Association of Belarusian Journalists (BAJ).'
The CIoJ calls on all governments and states unjustly detaining journalists for doing their professional work to respect freedom of expression, the right to liberty and free them immediately. See: https://rsf.org/en/new-record-number-journalists-jailed-worldwide
