Arab Press Network

The Arab Press Network (APN) (Template:Lang-fr) is a network of organisations that support and promote the development of the press in the Arab world. It is run by the World Association of Newspapers, with its headquarters in Paris, and is supported by the Danish newspaper group JP/Politiken.

According to APN, their mission is to facilitate associations between Arab journalists and editors in order to promote a free press. On a commercial level, the network supports newspapers to grow and expand through practical advice.

The APN website contains news about the Arab world and on developments therein relating to freedom of the press.
