Press Now

Ever since its formation in 1993, Press Now has stood for the independent, responsible and professional media in former Yugoslavia. Freedom of media is considered a prerequisite to the development of democratic society in which human rights and the rights of minorities are guaranteed. Press Now has various country programmes in the Balkans and Eastern Europe that support projects aiming at developing a viable media landscape for the development of a democratic open society in which human rights and the rights of minorities are respected. Press Now’s main activities involve journalism and management training, media monitoring, media legislation, financial support and infrastructure.
