"Somalia is at the frontlines of climate change, with the climate crisis affecting the lives of millions of Somalis, especially the most vulnerable", she said.
According to the UN Secretary-General's Special Representative for Somalia, James Swan, quoted in the statement, "much more needs to be done to raise awareness of all aspects of the environmental crisis and journalism is indispensable in this regard".
For Somalia to achieve its goals of stability and sustainable development, it is essential that journalists report accurately, timeously and comprehensively on environmental issues and their consequences, as well as on possible solutions, he added.
In Somalia, the United Nations supports civil society to engage on the relationship between human rights and climate change, including understanding how climate-induced shocks intersect with fundamental human rights such as the rights to life, health, food and safe drinking water, the statement said.
Established by the UN General Assembly in 1993, the theme of this year's World Press Freedom Day is "Journalism under Digital Siege" and is dedicated to the importance of journalism and freedom of expression in the context of the current global digital environment, it said.
The aim is to highlight the significant role that the press, journalism, access to information and freedom of expression play in ensuring a sustainable future, it said.
