Free Dawit Isaak Now
September 23, 2026 marks 25 years since the enforced disappearance and arbitrary detention of Swedish-Eritrean journalist Dawit Isaak in Eritrea.
For a quarter of a century, Dawit Isaak has been imprisoned without charge or trial, denied contact with his family, stripped of his legal rights, and deprived of basic humanitarian protections.
Dawit and his colleagues are the longest detained journalists in the world.
They are among thousands of political prisoners being held in Eritrea.
It is time to act.
Join our international campaign for Dawit Isaak today.
