Media and Law Studies Association
The Media and Law Studies Association (MLSA) is a Turkish non-profit (registered as Medya ve Hukuk Çalışmaları Derneği) founded in late 2017 to respond to an urgent yet growing need for going back to democracy and normalization in Turkey.
Our main goals are:
- offering legal protection to journalists who are punished for expressing their thoughts
- promoting the public’s right to information, particularly by supporting good finance and science journalism
- romoting rights of minority groups, with a concentration on refugees and the LGBTI community.
Our immediate goals for the next two years is deepening our work in these areas.
