Online dialogue on Info-Activism. See the archived dicussion!
In July Tactical Tech, New Tactics and resource practitioners featured in an online dialogue on Info-Activism: Turning Information into Action. This dialogue is now archived for practitioners to explore the innovative ways in which others have turned information into action with their advocacy campaigns.
We discussed topics such as:
- Collecting data
- Creative ways of visualizing data
- Digital ways of sharing this information
- Security risks one should evaluate before implementing these activities.
We also shared tools and tactics that can help you move your information into action!
As part of these dialogues Tactical Tech also premiered video footage from the Info-Activism multimedia handbook which will be launched later this year. This video footage features interviews with info-activists from around the world.
Our featured resource practitioners, leading this dialogue, included:
- Fredrick Noronha, writer, journalist, blogger and photographer, India
- Noha Atef, editor of Tortureinegypt.net, Egypt
- WITNESS team
- Melissa Gira Grant, writer and sex-worker activist, USA
- Patrick Meier, scholar and activist, USA
- Sally-Jean Shackleton, Lebo and Eva of Women'sNet, South Africa
Thank you to everyone who participated!
