UNESCO, AIJC condemn Maguindanao killings  

The UNESCO National Commission-Communication Committee and Asian Institute of Journalism and Communication expressed outrage over the brutal killing of journalists and civilians in Maguindanao in southern Philippines last November 23.

In condemning the horrific murders, UNESCO and AIJC called for speedy justice for the victims and for the resolute enforcement of the rule of law and protection of human rights.

The massacre brings to the fore the significance of the ongoing multidisciplinary study on the “Culture of Impunity in the Killing of Filipino Journalists” being conducted by AIJC with UNESCO support.

UNESCO NatCom and AIJC called on all sectors to be vigilant in safeguarding our democratic system by making those in power accountable for violations against universal freedoms and assaults on persons.

Citing the UN definition of impunity as “the impossibility of bringing the perpetrators of violations to account,” Dr. Florangel Rosario-Braid, NatCom communication committee chair and AIJC president emeritus, said that government should be able to protect its citizens and journalists in particular against becoming targets of impunity.

AIJC identifies gaps in information policies

 
 
A study on Policies on Information Access and Transparency conducted by AIJC for UNESCO inventoried and analyzed 182 policy documents and bills collected from 29 agencies and offices of the Executive, Judicial, and Legislative branches of government. One finding was that while some current laws and issuances already provide some provisions for information access and transparency, majority are inadequate in promoting development of the country’s resources for public domain information, dissemination of information about information available from government, and democratization of costs of accessing information.
