International Day to End Impunity for Crimes against Journalists

International Day to End Impunity for Crimes against Journalists is observed annually on November 2.

It was proclaimed by the United Nations in 2013 to raise awareness about the growing number of journalists who are killed, attacked, or harassed for reporting the truth, and to call for accountability in such cases.

The day emphasizes that crimes against journalists often go unpunished, undermining press freedom, democracy, and the public’s right to information.

It serves as a reminder that impunity for attacks on journalists must end and that protecting journalists is essential for justice and transparency worldwide.
