He was Chairman of the Intergovernmental Council of the UNESCO Information for All Programme and Chairman of the Steering Committee on the Media and New Communication Services at the Council of Europe. Karol Jakubowicz served as an expert on media regulation in Poland and other countries in Central and Eastern Europe.
