Human Rights: African Stories, trailer

How do reporters use fact-checking and open source intelligence techniques to get their stories? How are campaigners finding new ways to tell the world about injustices like extrajudicial killings, arbitrary detention, and gender-based violence?

We'll hear from Kenyan and Nigerian journalists talking about journalism; as well as communicators who work on human rights issues. 

It's about stories. How can a bar-room disagreement change a life forever?  Why are hawkers being harassed? And how do social media celebrity cop killers escape justice? 

Whether it’s pressuring the police and security services to be more accountable, or getting issues like domestic violence out into the open, this podcast is about the way that we tell these stories can change lives on the ground.

Meet the storytellers.
