We are honored and humbled by this generous gift from Mainframe!
In the video titled, “How Video Can Create a Just Society,” our executive director spoke about the importance of filming injustice and knowing how to handle video and use it for justice.
The feature highlights our guidance and resources on how to use the technology at our fingertips for human rights change and justice.
WITNESS is excited to announce a generous two-year, $500,000 grant from the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation which will go to powering up our critical work supporting activists, civic witnesses, and social movements across the U.S. to better utilize digital video and tools to expose abuses, strengthen and elevate counter narratives from vulnerable communities, uphold human rights values, and mobilize for change.
The network helps shape policies and provide resources and trainings to journalists, reporters and organizations using eyewitness media in their reporting.
