On an annual basis since 1999, the (now) four special international mandates on freedom of expression – the United Nations (UN) Special Rapporteur on Freedom of Opinion and Expression, the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) Representative on Freedom of the Media, the Organization of American States (OAS) Special Rapporteur on Freedom of Expression and the African Commission on Human and Peoples’ Rights (ACHPR) Special Rapporteur on Freedom of Expression and Access to Information – have adopted a Joint Declaration on a different freedom of expression theme. The Executive Director of CLD, Toby Mendel, has provided expertise and support to them in the preparation of all of these Joint Declarations, including the 10th one, adopted in early 2010. This 10thDeclaration looks forward to the ten key threats to freedom of expression over the upcoming decade.
