The Press Justice Project is a charity which exists to help anyone affected by wrongdoing in the newspapers or their websites and to educate students, decision-makers and the wider public on press standards and accountability. 

On 17 October 2024 the Press Justice Project is holding an event, hosted by Brown Rudnick, on “Reputation, privacy and the future of media law” where leading media lawyers, victims of press abuse and advocates for media fairness collaborate to educate delegates on media, reputation, and privacy laws and the regulatory landscape.

The panels will consist of experts at the cutting edge of media law and those who have faced intrusive or unlawful media attention, as they combine their first-hand knowledge and experiences to explore key legal issues, impacts, trends, forecasts and how we may improve future protection and accountability in media law.
