Abstract

Freedom of opinion and expression is one of the human rights that includes the right to information, to circulate it, and to express opinions about it freely, which is what most countries have affirmed. Together or individually, whether through the umbrella of international bodies; That is, in international conventions and declarations on human rights, or through their national legislation and their efforts to enshrine it in their constitutions, by taking the measures and establishing the necessary mechanisms to achieve adequate protection for it and ensure the legitimate exercise of this right.

This study found that the international community has sought through charters and conventions, whether at the international or regional level, to highlight the importance of guaranteeing and protecting the right to opinion and expression and the need to embody and enshrine it in national constitutions.
