"I KNOW THAT THIS ESSAY
IS A SUICIDAL ESSAY IN MY COUNTRY. BUT THIS IS A GOOD OPPORTUNITY TO PROVE FOR MYSELF, BEFORE YOU,
DEAR READERS, THAT I AM HUMAN AND CAN WRITE AND EXPRESS MYSELF."
MAZIN YOUSSEF - JOURNALIST FROM SYRIA
The RBS Group extended an invitation to five journalists hailing from countries with severe censorship policies to contribute their unbridled opinions to the columns of its leading newspapers. Each article shed light on the harsh realities of societies where the absence of information has a detrimental impact on the well-being of citizens. Employing the most potent tool in journalism, namely factual accuracy, the pieces tackled these issues head-on.
"TO READ THESE ARTICLES IS
LIKE LOOKING IN THE SOUL OF JOURNALISM ITSELF."
