Platform offers help for Russian journalists [Russia]

Posted on 7 sept 2022 dans Digital and Physical Safety

Russian journalists forced to leave Russia can use this new platform to help them decide on a country for relocation.

European Fund for Journalism in Exile and Mass Media Defence Centre launched the project shpargalka.info to help Russian journalists find a country to relocate to.

Currently, surveys of 12 countries are published on the website, featuring answers to frequently asked legal questions (how to get a job, how long you can stay in the country without a visa, among others).

The platform also has a feature that allows users to compare conditions in two countries when it comes to specific topics, such as taxes or self-employment status.

The information on the website is regularly updated.
