The Association of Venezuelan Journalists Abroad (APEVEX) is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting the professional development of its members and upholding the principles of freedom of expression, media pluralism, and human rights.
Founded on June 27, 2012, in the United States, APEVEX is the first association of Venezuelan journalists established outside of Venezuela.
The organization conducts activities such as forums, conferences, and panel discussions focused on press and information freedom in Venezuela and other Latin American countries where these rights are under threat.
APEVEX also leads and supports awareness campaigns denouncing the harassment, violence, and judicial persecution faced by journalists and media outlets.
Furthermore, the organization actively collaborates with other press associations and professional journalism bodies in initiatives that advocate for the protection of free expression, freedom of the press, and access to information.
APEVEX maintains a strictly non-partisan stance and does not endorse any political position.
