Why this is interesting: 

The event aims to find the most efficient wartime work mechanisms for the media community to enable journalists to do their job properly. During the event, participants will be able to reflect on current regulations regarding the work of journalists and suggest their vision of the balance between the freedom of speech and the protection of citizens during the time of war. Discussion materials will be incorporated into recommendations for the Government, the Parliament, and the journalist community.
