Grèce, chapitre national

Les Journalistes comptent, Campagne du Conseil de l'Europe pour la sécurité des journalistes

Le Conseil de l'Europe encourage les Etats membres à transposer la Campagne dans le contexte national. Sans l'effort engagé et efficace de chaque membre au niveau national, à travers le développement de ce que l'on appelle le "chapitre national", la Campagne ne peut atteindre ses objectifs.

Dans cette section, nous présenterons les développements en Grèce :

Points focaux nationaux

Dr. Dimitrios GALAMATIS, Secrétaire général de la communication et des médias, Présidence du gouvernement
Ms Aikaterini POLYZOU, Cheffe du Service des médias audiovisuels et de l’Internet, Présidence du gouvernement, Secrétariat général de la communication et des médias

Sécurité des journalistes - paysage national

In Greece, among the most important deliverables of the Task Force during its two years of operation, is the establishment of the “International Training Centre for the Safety of Journalists and Media Professionals” (ICSJ) which aims to harness the expertise and resources of the academic and professional community to provide specialized practical training to journalists and media professionals.

A number of legislative initiatives have been taken to provide better protection for journalists:

  • Under Law 5085/2024 Article 15, anyone who issues public statements, announcements, and publications, incites, urges, encourages or facilitates acts that may lead to violent offenses or threats of violence against journalists, who in the context of their capacity cover or comment on professional events sports, as well as related issues, shall be punished by imprisonment at least one (1) year and a fine.
  • With the recently adopted law number 5090/2024, article 362 concerning the act of simple defamation was removed from the Greek Penal Code.  Now only the act of libel concerning the dissemination of knowingly false information that may harm the honor or reputation of another, foreseen in article 363, remains punishable.
  • On 23 May 2024, journalists’ unions in Greece and the government signed a collective labour agreement for journalists employed by the State and public media. The agreement includes new gender equality provisions and enhanced protection for women journalists against harassment.
