The Whistle project
The Whistle is a digital platform in development to support civilian witnesses' reporting of human rights violations. The idea came out of the research on the Social Media and Human Rights project and was initially developed in Cambridge's Critical Coding class. Research Assistants for The Whistle are Rebekah Larsen, Isabel Guenette Thornton, and Matt Mahmoudi, and we consult with technologist Giles Barton-Owen.
