Media and the ICC

Transparency and accountability are cornerstones of the ICC. While protecting the integrity of judicial proceedings, the Court must make its activities public and accessible. The role of journalists worldwide is vital in this process.

This page provides various tools to help journalists report on the work of the Court. Journalists are also welcome to follow us on Twitter, YouTube, Flickr and Tumblr, subscribe to our RSS feeds (news, court records) and mailing list to receive press releases and other notifications.
