PRESS RELEASE
The Freedom of Expression Foundation Tribute is awarded to Kristin Clemet for her long-standing efforts to encourage a knowledge-based, objective public debate, and for making think tanks an important part of this. Through the liberal think tank Civita, she has identified new issues for discussion, brought new, young voices into the social debate, and breathed new life into ideological and political discussions both inside and outside the political parties.
Update: podcast available here.

PRESS RELEASE
From 3 March to 1 May 2017, the House of Photography at the Deichtorhallen Hamburg will be showing photo essays by twelve extraordinary young European photographers on the theme of “Shifting Boundaries.” The artists were nominated specifically to participate in the third round of the European Photo Exhibition Award (epea), a joint project by four European foundations.
The Fritt Ord Foundation Competition for upper secondary school is an annual competition that invites pupils to submit entries about freedom of expression and democracy. This year’s topic is ‘enemies of the people’.
No fewer than 27 photographers have taken part in the Norwegian Journal of Photography since the project was established in 2011. Fritt Ord’s efforts have given participants the opportunity to present their work at the national and international levels alike, in addition to offering workshops, seminars and guidance. We are now issuing a call for applications from photographers for two new years of NJP. The deadline is 1 March 2017.
