The Need / Summary of the problem

Journalists and activists need training to reduce risk. How do we teach them security strategies and tools to keep them safer?

Note: It's the activities that are associated with reporting that create risk, not whether you call yourself a "journalist" or "reporter".

Page 5: e-Coopera

Risk Situations (Joshua)

People are at risk if they are reporting on:1. Organized crime & illegal business practices2. War/armed conflict3. Repressive regimes/human rights issues4. Natural disasters5. Epidemics6. Systemic corruption7. Public protests8.Political matters

Context

Mexico: Journalist are blackmailed and harassed when they report corruption and drug trafficking.

Guatemala and Honduras: Anybody who is doing reporting on high-risk activities is in danger.

Pakistan: journalists need to have technical tools to do their job safely

Page 7: e-Coopera

Context

DRC, Kenya and other countries in Africa: journalists lack information. Also access and distribution are big problems.

Russia and other states in Eurasia: Journalists and activists work at their peril reporting human right violations, corruption, etc. and risk persecution or even being killed.

Proposed Solution (Azeem)

To create a Massive Online Open Course (MOOC) about security strategies and tools to teach journalists and activists about risky activities, behaviors and contexts and how to be safer.
