Since the protests of July 2001, the eSwatini authorities have responded to the calls for democratization with severe repression. The country has seen growing violence in recent months. We work with eSwatini partners to highlight the lack of free expression and campaign for reform.

• eSwatini FoE Summit
  In October 2022, we co-hosted a Freedom of Expression Summit with our partners, the Inhlase Centre for Investigative Journalism, in Manzini. One hundred individuals attended, representing every part of civil society. The meeting identified five priority areas for further action. We will reconvene for a further summit during 2023.
