PARTICIPATE: MAKING YOUR VOICE HEARD.
CNN has made the decision to move Freedom Day to April 15 in light of the ongoing events in the Middle East. We fully support this decision and the consideration behind it.
Our work has always been about bringing attention to issues of human freedom and dignity, and those values guide moments like this.
In alignment with this change, we have updated the submission deadline to APRIL 10TH.
We appreciate your understanding and look forward to recognizing this important day together on April 15.
