Toby Mendel
Centre for Law and Democracy Executive Director
Canada
I have been a freedom of expression/right to information lawyer and activist for over 20 years with a lot of experience working at the international level and in countries in regions around the world. Perhaps my most important area of expertise is in terms of standard-setting where, among other things, I have worked with the four special international mandates on freedom of expression to craft their annual Joint Declarations (https://www.osce.org/fom/66176) for the last 20 years. Love to talk about law and policy issues, especially cutting-edge, innovative ideas.
