He is the Executive Director of the advocacy group, the Alliance for Journalists' Freedom, and UNESCO Chair in Journalism and Communication at the University of Queensland. Before joining the university in January 2018, he spent 25 years as a foreign correspondent, starting with the civil war in Yugoslavia and elections in South Africa as a freelance reporter in the early 90s, before joining the BBC as its Afghanistan correspondent in 1995. He went on to cover Latin America, the Middle East and Africa for the BBC.</p> <p>He hit the headlines himself in December 2013, when he and two colleagues were arrested in Cairo on terrorism charges. They were convicted and sentenced to seven years in a case that drew international condemnation as attack on press freedom. Under pressure, Professor Greste was released, and he went on to become a champion of press freedom around the world. His stance has earned him numerous international awards, including the Australian Human rights Commission Medal, the RSL's 2016 ANZAC Peace Prize, and the Australian Press Council's 2018 Press Freedom award. Peter was appointed as an independent journalist member of the Press Council in August 2019.</p> </span></div></div></div></div></div> </div><div id="div_block-328-191-2" class="ct-div-block member-wrap" data-id="div_block-328-191"><h4 id="headline-329-191-2" class="ct-headline member-name" data-id="headline-329-191"><span id="span-330-191-2" class="ct-span" data-id="span-330-191">Julie Flynn</span></h4><a id="link-2671-191-2" class="ct-link oxel_icon_button__container member-button" href="https://presscouncil.org.au/members/julie-flynn" target="_self" role="button" data-id="link-2671-191"><div id="div_block-2672-191-2" class="ct-div-block" data-id="div_block-2672-191"></div><div id="text_block-2673-191-2" class="ct-text-block oxel_icon_button_text" data-id="text_block-2673-191">View Profile</div></a> <div id="-lightbox-4886-191-2" class="oxy-lightbox woocommerce" data-id="-lightbox-4886-191"><div id="link-lightbox-4886-191-2" class="oxy-lightbox_link " data-id="link-lightbox-4886-191"></div><div class="oxy-lightbox_inner" data-src="true" data-inner-content="true" data-click-selector=".member-button" data-multiple="false" data-loop="false" data-type="inline" data-small-btn="true" data-iframe-preload="true" data-toolbar="false" data-thumbs="false" data-duration="300" data-fullscreen="" data-autofocus="true" data-backfocus="true" data-trapfocus="true" data-nav-icon="FontAwesomeicon-chevron-left" data-close-icon="FontAwesomeicon-close" data-small-close-icon="Lineariconsicon-cross" data-zoom-icon="FontAwesomeicon-search" data-share-icon="" data-download-icon="FontAwesomeicon-download" data-prepend="false" data-swipe="false"><div id="div_block-4887-191-2" class="ct-div-block" data-id="div_block-4887-191"><div id="div_block-4888-191-2" class="ct-div-block" data-id="div_block-4888-191"><div id="div_block-4889-191-2" class="ct-div-block" style="background-image:url(https://presscouncil.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Julie-Flynn-016-683x1024.jpg);background-size: cover;" data-id="div_block-4889-191"></div><div id="div_block-4890-191-2" class="ct-div-block" data-id="div_block-4890-191"><h2 id="headline-4891-191-2" class="ct-headline" data-id="headline-4891-191"><span id="span-4892-191-2" class="ct-span" data-id="span-4892-191">Julie Flynn</span></h2><h2 id="headline-4893-191-2" class="ct-headline" data-id="headline-4893-191"><span id="span-4894-191-2" class="ct-span" data-id="span-4894-191"></span></h2></div></div><div id="div_block-4895-191-2" class="ct-div-block" data-id="div_block-4895-191"><div id="text_block-4896-191-2" class="ct-text-block" data-id="text_block-4896-191"><span id="span-4897-191-2" class="ct-span oxy-stock-content-styles" data-id="span-4897-191"><p>Julie Flynn is a retired journalist and media executive.
