10 photos from the “Freedom of press: the right to know” photo exhibition was opened on May 3 in Yerevan to mark World Press Freedom Day.
The one-week exhibition has been organized by the Freedom of Information Centre of Armenia non-governmental organization in cooperation with the OSCE Office in Yerevan and the UN Department of Public Information, and funded by the US Agency for International Development (USAID). It features more than 30 images selected from 300 photos submitted for the event; all photos included in the exhibition will be published in a catalogue.
The opening of the exhibition was attended by journalists, representatives of state institutions and civil society.
“This is a special exhibition since everyone, journalists and professional photographers in particular, were invited to present their images illustrating freedom of information and freedom of expression. These basic rights are intrinsically linked to press freedom, which in turn contributes to strengthening democratization, good governance and human development,” says Shushan Doydoyan, President of the Freedom of Information Centre (FOICA).
JNews.am will represent the rest of the photos of exhibition next week.
