MEDIA CIRCULAR FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
The Press Union of Liberia (PUL) announces that this year’s World Press Freedom Day will be celebrated on Saturday, May 3, 2025.
In preparation for the celebrations, T-shirts and caps are now available for purchase and collection at the PUL Headquarters on Clay Street, Monrovia.
All journalists and PUL members are encouraged to visit the headquarters to acquire the T-shirts for USD 5 or the equivalent in Liberian dollars; and caps for 500 Liberian dollars.
This year’s World Press Freedom Day focuses on the domestic theme, “Sustaining Independent Journalism and Press Freedom in the Digital Age.” A panel of experts will address this critical topic during the event.
The day’s activities will commence with a parade featuring journalists, PUL members, and invited dignitaries, marching from the PUL Headquarters to the Monrovia City Hall. Following the parade, an indoor program will be held at the City Hall, culminating in sporting activities at the Saye Town sports pitch.
We strongly encourage journalists and PUL members outside Montserrado County to participate in the celebrations. For those unable to attend in-person, T-shirts and caps can be purchased and collected through designated PUL representatives in each County.
