“Preserving the free flow of information is a major issue in our contemporary societies,” said Owono who grew up in Russia and studied in France.
She is currently in the USA, where she said reinforced “my conviction that without freedoms, without the right to express oneself, to receive or impart information, there can’t be true and profound progress. It is an honor for me to serve this cause, within the Oversight Board.”
