WE ARE
STANDING TOGETHER

We support one another whenever our right to work freely is threatened

MEMBERSHIP BENEFITS 

YOU’LL BE PART OF A GLOBAL MEDIA COMMUNITY

By joining IPI, you’ll have direct access to a network of like-minded media representatives from nearly 100 countries. Members share their contact details to facilitate networking and exchange of information among members all over the world.

Through our programmes and events around the world, including our World Congress, we create opportunities for our members to network, share experiences and exchange skills.

As an IPI member, you’ll play an active role in shaping the organisation: all IPI members have voting rights and can participate at the IPI General Assembly.

YOU’LL WORK SIDE BY SIDE WITH US

IPI members directly participate in our media freedom activities. You’re our point of first contact when we carry out work in your country. It’s thanks to your knowledge that our programmes have impact.

Our members help define our advocacy priorities and help develop our campaigns, research and monitoring work.

YOU’LL BE THE FIRST
TO HEAR FROM US

Our members are the first to know what’s new!

You’ll be the first to receive our publications, news and press releases, including priority access to interviews. We also have a Facebook group for members so you are the first to know about what’s going on at IPI.

You’ll get the first invitation to any event we organise, from expert meetings to conferences to film festivals. Plus, we may throw in something special, like a members-only dinner with a Nobel laureate.

YOU’LL HAVE A GLOBAL NETWORK FIGHTING FOR YOU

We campaign for our members when they need us, raising our voice to bring international attention to their plight. And since we always speak with the support of our entire network, we have a loud voice!

Our work aims to create real change in the world so that our members – journalists like you – can do their jobs freely.

Need legal, technical or institutional support? We’ll connect you with partners in our network who can help.

YOU’LL HELP US DO GOOD

Support from our members is what keeps IPI going.

Your membership fee provides a valuable and independent source of funding without which we couldn’t carry out our global mission to protect media freedom.

Our members make us unique. By joining IPI and sharing your voice, time and experience, you help to create a strong community.

Without members like you, there is no IPI!
