It provides a comprehensive overview and detailed legal procedures, cultivating an environment that promotes and safeguards human rights within the digital landscape.
The publication contributes to strengthening the democratic foundations of freedom of speech and assembly, as well as independent and new media, while safeguarding space for activists, human rights defenders, and oppositional voices.
