Digital Security Guideline for Journalists and Human Rights Defenders

Atnafu Berhane, Digital Security Trainer and Program Director at CARD, has published Digital Security Guideline. The Guideline is developed for journalists and human rights defenders and is prepared in three languages: Amharic, Afaan Oromo, and English.

"Human rights defenders and journalists have regularly been targeted by authorities in Ethiopia simply for expressing themselves freely and for standing for their beliefs. Many reports show that authoritarian governments hire international hacking companies to target human rights defenders. Ethiopia is one of those countries. This digital security guideline, developed in three languages - Afaan Oromo, Amharic, and English - aims to empower human rights defenders and journalists with the skills to protect their presence online."
