A Survey of Freedom Of Panorama (FOP) in the Philippines
Johnny Alegre (Buszmail), head of the Pilipinas Panorama Community, presented a capsule overview of PPC's flagship advocacy, Freedom of Panorama, before the diverse audience attending Wikimania 2023 in Singapore.
Freedom of Panorama is a little-known yet important legal right; for photographers, netizens, and content creators to freely capture and share public works of art and architecture found in or seen from public spaces, usually installed on a permanent basis. FOP serves to benefit Wikimedia's readership by acting as a freely accessible adjunct to information on all branches of knowledge. In the context of FOP in the Philippines, it is still a legislative work in progress. The reportorial on the subject will be of interest to Wikimedians in ESEAP, and perhaps the global audience.
Date: August 18, 2023 (Friday)
Location: Suntec Singapore Convention and Exhibition Centre, Singapore
