CASE is a coalition of NGOs from across Europe, including PILnet, representing a range of different public watchdogs united in recognition of the threat posed to their work by Strategic Lawsuits Against Public Participation (SLAPPs), abusive lawsuits designed to silence critical speech.

Panelists:

  • Ana Gomes, Former Member of the European Parliament
  • Andrew Caruana Galizia, Daphne Caruana Galizia Foundation
  • Jonathan Taylor, Whistleblower
