#FCBBCA: Free speech and democracy in a revolutionised Arab World

At this special event in association the BBC Arabic and Free Speech Debate we will be discussing the importance of freedom of speech in the Arab world as new fledgling democracies begin to emerge.


The past year and a half has seen an unprecedented reshaping of the societies and politics of the Arab world. Long after foreign news crews have packed up and returned home, people in those countries are fighting to finish their revolutions and create a new society. At this special event in association the BBC Arabic and Free Speech Debate we will be discussing the importance of freedom of speech in the Arab world as new fledgling democracies begin to emerge.
