Brazilian Association of Investigative Journalism

Abraji’s Monitoring of Judicial Harassment against Journalists in Brazil stands out for being the latest example of work that led to practical advocacy and strategic litigation by Abraji. In May 2024, the Federal Supreme Court (STF) acknowledged the practice of judicial harassment as a way of curbing the work of the press and the right of citizens to stay informed. All the ministers present at the session followed the vote of the Court's president, Luís Roberto Barroso, who ruled in favor of ADI (Direct Action of Unconstitutionality) 7055, proposed by Abraji.
