The aim of the panel is to discuss ways in which the EU can be more effective in the implementation of the EU Guidelines of the Freedom of Expression Online, how the EU and Member States could mainstream more effectively the promotion and protection of freedom of expression in the EU’s external activities, and consider ways in which the EU could respond to violations of freedom of opinion and expression online in third countries. The panel also aims to explore different international efforts from the perspective of coherence and synergy in the protection and promotion of freedom of expression online, including the work of OSCE in this realm.
