World Update

Available for over a year

Kuwait has a reputation as one of the most forward looking Arab states with a constitution that guarantees freedom of expression.

Dan Damon spoke to law Professor Fatima al Matar, who has been organising protests against the censorship. (Picture: Books. Credit: Âé¶¹Éç)
