Reporters without borders/Reporters sans frontières are asking for help in compiling a list of all journalists killed around the world since 1944 to assist the town of Bayeux, in Normandy, France, who are planning to build a memorial entirely devoted to journalists and press freedom.
The memorial will be the first of its kind in Europe and feature a landscaped walkway displaying white stones bearing the names of journalists killed anywhere in the world since 1944. The Memorial will be inaugurated in Bayeux on 7 October 2006. Full press release available here.
