Timeline
Owen was a founder trustee of Free Word, a centre for literature, literacy and free expression in London. Free Word was conceived in 2004, and Owen took it through from an idea to concrete reality, finding the funding from Norwegian foundation Fritt Ord to buy a building for the centre in Farringdon Road. It opened in June 2009. Following the COVID-19 pandemic in April 2021, Fritt Ord confirmed its intention to sell the Farringdon building, which was closed and its resident organisations vacated by May 2021. The Free Word Centre announced its closure on 27 May 2021.

Under her editorship from 1993 to 2006, Index became a vital source on all aspects of free expression for media and human rights organisations throughout the world and won several major awards.
Owen is the editor of the anthology Fathers: Reflections by Daughters (Virago, 1983) and Whose Cities (with Mark Fisher), published by Penguin in 1991.
