Reporters Without Borders, also known under its French name Reporters sans frontières (RSF), is an international independent organization that acts for the freedom, pluralism and independence of journalism and defends those who embody these ideals. Founded in 1985 and based in Paris, recognised as a public interest organization in France since 1995, RSF has consultative status with the United Nations, UNESCO, the Council of Europe and the International Organization of Francophonie (OIF). RSF has 130 correspondents around the world, 6 international sections (Germany, Austria, Spain, Finland, Sweden, Switzerland) and offices in 7 cities (London, Brussels, Tunis, Washington DC, Rio de Janeiro, Dakar, Taipei). The Journalism Trust Initiative, initiated and operated by RSF, is an internal compliance and external accountability and transparency tool for newsrooms of all sizes and types. It is based on an official standardization deliverable, the CWA17493:2019, according to EU law and translates the self-assessments and independent third-party audits of media outlets into a machine-readable trustworthiness indicator as referenced in the Code of Practice.
