The Russian War on Media

Time: Thursday 31 March, 17:00-18:00 CET

Location: Nobel Peace Center


ABOUT THE EVENT

The media is part of the battlefield in Russia’s war against Ukraine. Russian authorities are tightening their grip, and more and more free media are shutting down and leaving the country. What is it like being a journalist in Russia? What information does Russians receive about the war, and how much does the West know about the conditions in Russia?

In collaboration with the Nobel Peace Center, Norwegian Helsinki Committee and The Norwegian Union of Journalists, PEN Norway invites Russian journalists to a conversation about press freedom in Russia. They will share experiences from the last few weeks and how they are doing their best to continue their work in spite of state control.

The event will be in English. Limited number of seats. Participants and program will be announced soon!
