<br>
We are very excited to announce that we will be presenting a “lightening<br>
session” at the IGF TODAY, Tuesday December 6th at 1:00!<br>
<br>
Please join Columbia Global Freedom of Expression for a demo of our<br>
international case law database. Information on the lightening session is<br>
available here.<br>
<br>
The Global Freedom of Expression Case Law Database hosts nearly 800 case<br>
analyses of seminal court cases pertaining to freedom of expression from 110<br>
countries. They include recent judicial decisions as well as those that are<br>
precedent-setting. The database is ever-growing with 20 to 30 new analyses<br>
added every month.<br>
<br>
The platform also offers blogs, publications and reviews of legal developments<br>
on freedom of expression and information around the world. It is designed to<br>
be a key resource for a broad audience of stakeholders working on freedom of<br>
expression, including lawyers, judges, activists, academics and students.<br>
<br>
If you cannot make it to the session, please visit our booth in the IGF<br>
village!<br>
Hope to see you soon,<br>
Hawley and Amalie<br>

About Columbia Global Freedom of Expression<br>
The Freedom of Expression Case Law Database is a project of Columbia Global<br>
Freedom of Expression, an initiative launched in 2014 by Columbia University<br>
President Lee C. Bollinger. Columbia Global Freedom of Expression seeks to<br>
advance understanding of the international and national norms and institutions<br>
that best protect the free flow of information in an inter-connected global<br>
community with major common challenges to address. It is directed by Dr. Agnès<br>
Callamard, a distinguished human rights and freedom of expression expert. In<br>
addition to the case law database, Columbia Global Freedom of Expression<br>
undertakes and commissions research and policy projects; organizes events and<br>
conferences; and participates in and contributes to global debates on the<br>
protection of freedom of expression and information.<br>
