The ARTICLE 19 Freedom of Expression Virtual Handbook is a resource providing access to international and best comparative standards on the right to freedom of expression. It is designed to be accessible to journalists, NGOs and others, while also providing high-quality legal information. The information in the Handbook can be searched in a number of ways, including thematically – for example for defamation law, broadcast regulation, on-line expression, and legal protection of journalists – and by country or jurisdiction. The Handbook consists of three parts: Database of Legal Decisions, Database of Legal Standards, and Database of Thematic Papers.
