Methodology

The European Anti-SLAPP Monitor will track the progress of European Union and Council of Europe member states in transposing and implementing the Anti-SLAPP Directive and the CoE Recommendation.

Governments and national authorities will determine how to transpose these instruments, whether by introducing standalone laws, drafting special sections in existing laws, or amending various laws. We will ensure that such initiatives and developments are closely monitored.

The monitoring and collection of information will be conducted by CASE members and national experts. However, governments and national authorities are encouraged to share information with the monitor about their efforts to transpose and implement European Anti-SLAPP standards.

Coalition Against SLAPPs In Europe

CASE is a coalition of European NGOs that recognize the threat posed to public watchdogs by Strategic Lawsuits Against Public Participation (SLAPPs).

European Centre For Press & Media Freedom

The European Centre for Press and Media Freedom (ECPMF) was founded in 2015 in Leipzig, Germany, and operates under European press freedom charters.

Mapping Media Freedom documents press and media freedom violations across Europe. The documented incidents are publicly accessible and can be explored, filtered, and searched through the interactive Alert Explorer.
