ARTICLE 19 was founded in London, UK, in 1987.
Since then, we have worked for a world where all people everywhere can freely express themselves and actively engage in public life without fear of discrimination.
Curious about our most significant contributions over the last 4 decades?
In the 2000s, ARTICLE 19 undertook an extensive programme of regionalisation to better understand local realities and needs.
ARTICLE 19 Senegal and West Africa was established in this vein to strengthen freedom of expression across the region.
The regional office works in partnership with local organisations across Senegal and West Africa to build their capacity on freedom of expression and to improve our local knowledge, visibility, and legitimacy.
