Reporters Without Borders announced the results of the 2024 Press Freedom Index, noting that Libya’s position in the global and Arab list has improved.
Libya ranked 143rd in the world and 11th among Arab countries, indicating a more stable environment for journalists than in previous years.
There were no arrests, abductions, or killings of journalists in Libya this year, demonstrating significant progress in protecting journalists and media freedom.
Mauritania tops the Arab and Maghreb list of press freedom, followed by Tunisia and Morocco, while Libya ranks ahead of Algeria.
The index is based on five new criteria to assess press freedom, including the political environment, legal framework, economic, social, and cultural conditions, as well as safety.
These criteria are evaluated based on quantitative data on violations against journalists and qualitative analysis based on surveys conducted by the organization with hundreds of press freedom experts.
Founded in 1985 in Montpellier, France by four journalists, Reporters Without Borders aims to support freedom of the press and information and includes more than 150 correspondents on all continents of the world.
The organization publishes an annual press freedom index in 180 countries, works to open blocked websites, and support and promote journalists and media platforms.
