Such platforms are particularly valuable in developing countries and places where freedom of expression is, well, complicated.</p>

<p>We are pleased to announce that as of 2017 the <a href="http://www.humanrightsfilmnetwork.org/node/211" target="_blank">Red Carpet Human Rights Film Festival in Gaza City</a> is now member of the Human Rights Film Network. Since 2015, the festival presents short and long feature films, documentaries and animation films, that shed the light on local and global humanitarian issues. Amid the rubble of one of Gaza City's heavily bombarded districts, the organisers roll out a 60 meters long red carpet. We welcome the organisers to the Human Rights Film Network and hope that network membership contributes to the success of their 3rd edition in May 2017. </p>
