"The OSCE Safety of Journalists Guidebook details the safety issues facing journalists in the work that they do, particularly in the OSCE region. The guidebook details these threats and provides context behind them alongside looking at how journalists can be protected and perpetrators of crimes against them held to account through prosecution. It also emphasises how prevention is of key importance too and makes some tentative recommendations as to how journalists can be better protected." (https://cfom.org.uk)
