Living in an era where expression of speech is the foundation of our news outlets, it's imperative journalists are able to freely speak in the media. Unfortunately, many journalists are targeted for using their freedoms and hence need the reinforcement to both physically and mentally protect themselves from the external pressure they're plagued with. The United Nations promotes equality of individual rights and diplomatic globalization of information. Yet, it's common that journalists are targeted for the pieces they put out. They experience a spectrum of negative consequences. Whether they are followed, put at violence, or get their work taken away. Thus, it's our moral responsibility to ensure that these journalists are still able to freely pursue their careers. By participating in this committee, delegates will be responsible for creating frameworks that protect the natural rights of journalists all around the world. It’s time to speak up for the ones who’ve done all the speaking.

**This committee is a dual delegation.
