Overview
Working with the media, from investigative journalists to traditional broadcasters, has been the regular way for activists and civil society to amplify their voices and reach a broad public about the issues that concern them.
However with the proliferation of media sources and sometimes challenging traditional media landscapes, activists and civil society organisations need to think creatively how to use media sources to advance rights protection..
This session focuses on political communication, new media, storytelling, and inclusive networking to protect rights. This will look at the ways activists and civil society can use media, including new forms of communication and storytelling to advance rights protection.
