The International Freedom of Expression Exchange (IFEX) is a cooperative organization consisting of more than 40 freedom of expression groups worldwide. The IFEX Clearing House Website, managed jointly by the Norwegian Forum for Freedom of Expression (NFFE) and the Canadian Journalists for Free Expression (CJFE), provides "accurate and up-to-date information on freedom of expression issues and abuses." The site offers three notable information resources: the IFEX Action Alert Service, The IFEX Communique, and a hyperlinked directory of IFEX members. The IFEX Action Alert Service is a searchable database of nearly 4,500 news items posted by member organizations reporting freedom of expression violations all over the world. The IFEX Communique is a weekly Web-based publication that summarizes recent news and announces upcoming events. The entire site is also available in French or Spanish.
