EXPOSING ABUSES

This panel highlights how citizens are contributing on facilitating evidence, as well as how journalists, policy makers or activists are empowering voices against corruption and abuses. Reporting about three different local contexts, the speakers will reflect on how their work was effective in raising awareness, exposing human rights abuses, and building cases on neglected issues.

Moderated by Michael Hornsby (Communication Officer, Transparency International, UK/DE).
