Series VI: Country & Regional Program & Research Files, 1981-2007

Scope and content:

This series contain files related to both regional and country-specific programs and research activities. These files primarily document the data-gathering activities of CPJ for the purposes of investigating and documenting cases and press conditions. As such, most of the material in these files consists of research material obtained from secondary sources, although the files also contain some correspondence, research notes, and documentation of telephone calls.

These files also contain records that document CPJ actions, campaigns, missions, and protests, and include clippings, correspondence, field notes, planning documents, photographs, and protest letters.

Additional information on case lists, cases, imprisoned and killed journalists, missions, programs, publications, and reports can be found in Series VII: Publications and Series VIII: Communications and Publicity.

The series is divided into six subseries based upon the regional divisions currently used by CPJ:

-Subseries VI.1. General, 1990-2001

-Subseries VI.2. Africa, 1981-2007

-Subseries VI.3. Americas, 1979-2004

-Subseries VI.4. Asia, 1981-2006

-Subseries VI.5. Europe and Central Asia, 1981-2005
