Editor: Dawid Szabłowski (Europe), Times Asian
New York / Buenos Aires, 2026 — Fundación Suma Veritas, an Argentina-based civil society organisation holding Special Consultative Status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) since 2011, has formally granted Dawid Szabłowski, Founder and Global Editor-in-Chief of Civil Society News Network (CSNN), the honorary distinction of Honorary International Press & Media Ambassador – Women’s Leadership, Civil Society Dialogue & Social Impact.
The distinction was confirmed by Dr Graciela De Oto, President of Fundación Suma Veritas, through an official letter and honorary diploma issued in Buenos Aires. The recognition highlights Szabłowski’s commitment to international communication, civil society dialogue, responsible media and meaningful social impact through global cooperation.
Szabłowski’s institutional profile includes several roles of international relevance. He is the Founder and Global Editor-in-Chief of CSNN, the Founder and President of Equal Society International (ESI) and the Europe Director of the Northern Citizen Community Board (NCCB) — an organisation holding Special Consultative Status with UN ECOSOC. He also serves as Editor – Europe, Times Asian, strengthening his role in international public communication and cross-regional media cooperation.
Taken together, these roles position him at the intersection of public-interest media, civic engagement, institutional cooperation and international communication.
For Fundación Suma Veritas, the honorary distinction acknowledges a profile built around responsible journalism, civic visibility and cross-border dialogue. In its official communication, the foundation stated that the honorary role represents a bridge between media, civil society and international collaboration, giving greater visibility to initiatives that promote inclusion, leadership and human dignity.
The recognition carries additional institutional weight because Fundación Suma Veritas operates within the United Nations civil society space through its consultative status with ECOSOC. In this context, the distinction is not merely ceremonial. It reflects the growing importance of credible civil society media leaders capable of connecting institutions, communities and public-interest initiatives across regions.
For CSNN, the distinction marks another stage in the network’s international development. Founded and led by Szabłowski, CSNN is developing as a civil society-oriented media and analytical network focused on human rights, institutional dialogue, civic responsibility, public-interest communication and global cooperation.
Through Equal Society International, Szabłowski has also expanded his civic engagement into the areas of social development, inclusion, education, family support, media development and institutional cooperation, connecting public communication with practical civil society work and long-term social responsibility.
At the same time, the public significance of the distinction remains clear. It recognises a civil society media leader whose work connects responsible journalism, international dialogue, institutional cooperation and social-impact leadership. In a global environment affected by fragmentation, disinformation and declining public trust, such roles are becoming increasingly important for organisations seeking credible channels of communication and civic visibility.
For Fundación Suma Veritas, the distinction strengthens its international communication dimension. For CSNN, it confirms the growing relevance of its founder’s leadership within the global civil society media space. For Times Asian, the recognition also underlines the value of cross-regional editorial engagement between Europe, Latin America and the wider international civil society environment.
For Szabłowski, it represents another institutional milestone on a public path built around responsible communication, civic leadership and bridge-building between people, institutions and regions.
