In 2023, Gabon scored 52 points in the Global Expression Report (GxR). This was higher compared to the previous year, when the country scored 52 points. Over the observed period, the country's score declined considerably since its peak of 66 points in 2017. This is likely due to the current president's political and electoral dominance. GxR ranks countries based on the openness of the society, with a higher score being given to countries with more freedom of expression.
