Program From Information to Participation Challenges for the Media International Conference 30 June – 2 July 2014 | WorldCCBonn, Germany
© DW
Advancing sustainability, participation and inclusion around the globe from Bonn, Germany In Bonn, the United Nations are working towards sustainable development worldwide with almost 1,000 employees in 18 secretariats, surrounded by a dense network of Bonn-based actors: academia, development services, businesses, the media, and some 170 international and internationally active NGOs. Climate change, desertification, biodiversity and volunteer work are only a few of “Bonn’s topics”. Bonn stands for networking and dialogue, transdisciplinary cooperation and synergies, the city being an active partner in many processes and a renowned and appreciated platform for the international debate. This includes debates on education in an inclusionary setting, understanding participatory decision-making and inclusion as a learning process for society as a whole. On our way towards responsible and responsive communities, the media worldwide play a crucial role in informing people, in involving societies in a future- oriented dialogue and in advancing this process. Bonn is a place where sectors are interlinked and new perspectives are opened up – in a conference series like the Bonn Perspectives, focusing particularly on nexus issues, in the work of institutions like the Right Livelihood Campus and of course with the Global Media Forum 2014 and its lively debates and participants from all over the world. Best practice, networking and inspiration meet here in Bonn, and are complemented by a huge choice of recreational offers: Bonn’s Museum Mile with its top-class exhibitions, the annual Beethoven Festival and a rich cultural scene, high quality of life and great leisure opportunities in a city surrounded by the uniquely scenic landscape of the Rhine valley.

Erik Bettermann From the Maidan demonstrations in Kyiv, Ukraine, to mass protests in Venezuela and Brazil, the media always played a key role, and especially online social networks. The world’s growing digital infrastructure opens the door for more and more people to directly participate in social developments. At times, information and interaction via digital media can provide the final impetus that transforms a latent mood into public opposition and mobilizes civil society. It is my pleasure to welcome you to this year’s Global Media Forum, centered on the highly topical theme “From Information to Participation — Challenges for the Media.” Now in its seventh year, Deutsche Welle’s annual conference draws professionals from the fields of media, politics, culture, business, development cooperation and academia to Bonn. They discuss and design approaches to meeting the challenges of global development in which the media play a central role. This year’s international and interdisciplinary event kicks off with a media summit spotlighting “The future of journalism and the role of international broadcasters.” We are honored to welcome not only high-profile media experts like Peter Horrocks from BBC World Service, but also Egyptian political satirist Bassem Youssef. His career path from YouTube to internationally broadcast TV programs is an example of the seminal influence of social media and inspiring digital formats. It also underscores the relevance of this year’s conference theme. With 40 workshops over the course of three days, you’ll have ample opportunity to interact with decision-makers and opinion leaders from more than 100 countries. The Deutsche Welle Global Media Forum has once again put together a broad spectrum of current topics to stimulate discussion, for example, concerning the relationship between politics and media, new developments in journalism and the challenge of achieving a culture of participation, as well as cyber security and global threats in the digital realm. DW journalists and hundreds of other content providers, media producers, bloggers and online activists will be here to ensure that the discussions and insights from the conference resonate far beyond the World Conference Center Bonn. Not least, it is the many partner organizations that help shape the Global Media Forum’s dynamic profile. An international conference like this wouldn’t be possible without their close involvement — whether in terms of content, material

or expertise. So allow me to extend my deep gratitude to all those who have provided their support. Special thanks goes to the Foundation for International Dialogue of the Sparkasse Savings Bank in Bonn, which has served as co-host of the conference from its outset. Once again we also greatly appreciate the generous support provided by Germany’s Federal Foreign Office, the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development and the City of Bonn. And many thanks to key partners, such as Amnesty International, Deutsche Telekom, the GrimmeInstitut, Reporters Without Borders and the many other renowned organizations and institutions from Germany, Europe and around the world. It is my sincere hope that the Global Media Forum will prove to be both personally and professionally enriching for all of us, full of lively discussions and inspiring conversations.

Message from the German Federal Minister for Foreign Affairs Message from the host Š thomas-koehler-photothek
Erik Bettermann The Deutsche Welle Global Media Forum is taking place for the seventh time in 2014. The Federal Foreign Office is very glad to support this media conference, which has earned an excellent reputation in Germany and beyond as a platform for dialogue on the major issues of our media society. This year, too, people from very diverse professions and countries will gather in Bonn to jointly discuss solutions for urgent present-day media challenges. I particularly want to welcome the around one hundred and twenty participants from emerging economies and developing countries who are being sponsored by the Federal Foreign Office. I am sure that their varied experiences will enrich the Forum debates. The theme of this year’s Global Media Forum is From Information to Participation — Challenges for the Media. Digitisation has radically transformed our lives, our ways of thinking and our working methods. This is opening up new opportunities for citizens throughout the world to become more involved in political decision-making. Free access to the Internet can serve as a catalyst for strengthening democracy. Yet the Internet also harbours risks to which we cannot afford to turn a blind eye. After all, modern hardware and soft ware can also be used against journalists, citizens and politicians as instruments of surveillance, persecution and oppression. In the age of big data the issue of protecting the right to individual privacy has acquired a new urgency. No country can single-handedly find convincing solutions to the challenges posed by our digitally networked world. We will only be able to fulfil this task if we join forces across borders. And we are called to find the right balance between freedom and security while respecting the principles of openness, responsibility and transparency in the digital era. I am confident that the Global Media Forum 2014 will provide important food for thought on the major opportunities and challenges presented by the digital age in which we live. I am therefore looking forward all the more to inspiring discussions and exciting encounters with an emphasis on information and participation.
Dr. Frank-Walter Steinmeier Federal Minister for Foreign Affairs

Message from the German Federal Minister for Economic Cooperation and Development
© Bundesregierung/Kugler
In this information age, a phrase has been coined that aptly describes humanity in the 21st century: "overnewsed but underinformed." Indeed, information nowadays travels around the world in seconds in the form of megabytes. This technological sea change, driven by the Internet, is making information more easily accessible worldwide. It takes mere seconds to reveal the stark contrasts between different parts of the world. We can no longer deny all knowledge of the hunger, migration and displacement affecting other parts of the world. And in the same way, less fortunate people are fully aware of the way of life in more prosperous places. The process of "mediatisation" is bringing us closer together. Germany’s Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) is responding to these developments. Together with civil society, business, churches, academia and other stakeholders we have launched a dialogue on a Charter for the Future of our — as we like to call it — ONE WORLD. Our aim is to craft an image of how we wish to live on this planet together in a sustainable way and how to make it possible. This clearly includes the opportunities the digital era is offering and which we are already tapping into in the realm of development policy. Today, farmers in southern India are able to increase their yields with the help of a mobile phone app; a pregnancy advisor app has helped to reduce maternal and child mortality in Ghana; and start-ups are booming across all of Africa. In Africa, in particular, digital connectivity is becoming increasingly important. That is one reason for us to make this continent a focus of our work. Being connected improves people’s opportunities to participate in the economy, to access information on health issues and global knowledge, and to shape public opinion. We must make sure that we do not deprive anybody of these opportunities. Where people enjoy the right to freedom of expression and free access to information, they are in a much better position to assert and make use of other rights, such as their right to food, education and health. That is why we are committed to ensuring that the Internet is global, open and free with non-discriminatory access. And we are committed to education and media skills development, which gives people the necessary means to reap the benefits of a digital era. This not only translates into a mandate for the media; it presents them with a huge challenge. It is not primarily about technology, but instead about enhanced participation, democracy and the realization of human rights. Dr. Gerd Müller, Federal Minister for Economic Cooperation and Development 7
Message from the Co-Host Whether the Internet is truly the most significant achievement of the 20th century is a question open to debate. It has, however, certainly had a major impact on our lives over the past 45 years. Without the Internet, much of the progress made in global media communications, and also in respect to political and social processes, would have turned out differently or would not have been possible at all. And while the Internet is accessible to all users, the media bear a large share of responsibility for organizing, managing and substantiating information and for the development of public opinion. The choice to hold the 2014 Deutsche Welle Global Media Forum under the motto “From Information to Participation” was therefore an apt one. This barely fiftyyear-old technology, through which information is disseminated across the globe within seconds and made available to more and more people every day, also raises the issue of responsibility for such global openness and the dangers posed by cyberspace. Who should be responsible for the quality of information, for serious, independent reporting and in-depth research, and for illuminating backgrounds and opinions? Only through the media can the community of users become an informed public capable of seizing the Internet’s opportunities to participate in political and social processes. To ensure that the media recognize this challenge and their responsibility as channels for information and expressions of opinion, we need international conferences and forums like the Deutsche Welle Global Media Forum. The Sparkasse KölnBonn (Savings Bank Cologne/Bonn) is pleased to provide various forms of support to initiatives and projects that resonate and establish Bonn as a city devoted to dialogue on issues of global importance. One such initiative is the “Foundation for International Dialogue of the Sparkasse Savings Bank in Bonn”, which has served as co-organizer of the Deutsche Welle Global Media Forum with its renowned speakers and numerous international guests for years. On behalf of the Foundation, I wish you all stimulating discussions, novel ideas and new perspectives, which you will be able to take home with you, develop further in your home regions and discuss with others within the framework of global networks. Artur Grzesiek Chairman of the Board of the Foundation for International Dialogue of the Sparkasse Savings Bank in Bonn, CEO of the Sparkasse KölnBonn 8

Message Message from the from Mayor the of Co-Host Bonn A warm welcome to you here in Bonn, Germany’s United Nations City and platform for the international dialogue on sustainability! Over the past two decades, the UN has established its global hub for sustainable development here, with almost 1,000 employees working from Bonn. They are surrounded by a unique cluster of institutions and organizations active in the fields of environment and development. The city has become a renowned and appreciated platform for international debates and a nurturing environment for international exchange. Several Conferences of the Parties to UN Conventions, major international conferences and an increasing number of events focused on social dynamics have taken place here, including the 2011 UN Department of Public Information NGO Conference, placing a special focus on responsible societies and responsive citizens. In the age of social media, information involves response. Therefore, the role of media worldwide has come to a turning point — a fact that has become visible in the work of Deutsche Welle as well. Bonn is the place where best practice meets networking and inspiration. Deutsche Welle and its partners have successfully established the Global Media Forum as a leading platform for dialogue on the role of the media in different processes — and I think that a new role model for the media as drivers of responsive and inclusive societies is an important topic that perfectly suits our times. Thank you for being here in Bonn today, for being ambitious in your ideas and controversial in your discussions. Let us send out a positive signal from Bonn that reaches societies, media providers and individuals all around the world.
Jürgen Nimptsch Mayor of Bonn, Germany

The future of journalism and the role of international broadcasters
The media’s digital future has long become a reality. As journalists write blogs and bloggers post journalistic content, the lines between commentary and traditional journalistic reporting have been blurred. While new media outlets take an ever firmer hold across the world, conversations have grown concerning quality, credibility and authenticity. The globalization of media has also left its mark on foreign broadcasters, who have had to adapt not only their communication structures but also their self-image in the midst of this sea change.
What will information services look like in the future? How can international broadcasters contribute to global diversity? Who can smoothly navigate the flood of information? Will conventional media be able to retain their stake or has the time come to revise the very way we think about “news”?

Caught in the web — The media as both victim and perpetrator alike
Hardly any other business sector is as deeply enmeshed in the workings of the Internet as the media — with all the positive and negative consequences that it entails. Media are repeatedly the targets of hacking attacks and hacktivism. At the same time, they must report about such attacks, frequently in the face of resistance from those most affected and in some cases with little information available. Last but not least, the media strongly rely on the Internet to spread their content and must adapt their workflows to match this extremely fast-paced and virtually boundless medium. For media professionals, this workshop will paint a picture of the latest online threats and provide tips on how publishers and journalists can protect themselves. From the perspective of an Internet service provider, it will provide insight into the corporate mechanisms that engage within companies that have fallen victim to a cyber attack. Finally, it will examine new approaches being taken in the sector to better protect businesses, public institutions and society at large from cyber attacks in the future.
Brief multimedia elements will be used to introduce various aspects of the topic. A panel of experts will present the main points from the perspectives of a variety of stakeholders. Workshop participants will have ample opportunity to pose questions and add to the discussion.

Quality vs. quantity — How is traditional media responding to the rise of social media?
The Arab Spring, Occupy Wall Street and the Ukraine crisis have provided clear examples of the radical impact social media has on the way information and news is produced, distributed and consumed. There is no doubt that social media provides an outlet for an important extra layer of information and diverse opinions outside traditional media.
What impact does this have on traditional journalism? How is social media influencing conventional methods of reporting? And will social media platforms ultimately replace traditional media? The panel will discuss this topic with eminent panelists from Australia, Hong Kong, Singapore, Thailand and Pakistan.

Multidisciplinary research and reporting on information control
The variety and popularity of different platforms and mobile applications for fast and real-time communication and exchange of information are growing. Governments now find it much harder to control the flow of information and find themselves on the periphery rather than at the center of information production and distribution. As methods of online communications and content production evolve, so do the methods enacted to control them. Governments, such as Iran’s, are moving towards more nuanced methods of controlling information online, for example through network monitoring, Internet speed fluctuations, information control policies and legislation. This panel of researchers will discuss how mixed methods and multidisciplinary research can shed light on these subtle forms of information control. Measuring their impact can help to create transparency and hold governments accountable.
The session will appeal to those working in the fields of activism, policy, academia, technology, and data-monitoring. The workshop aims to create an interdisciplinary discussion regarding the nature of “Just-in-Time” and nuanced Internet control. It will bring together researchers who use technical quantification and political analysis to determine the use of information control and its impact, and explore how journalists can work with such individuals to create more transparency, accountability and awareness.

Journalists and NGOs: Giving a voice to communities affected by disaster
In an emergency, information saves lives. When disaster strikes, everyone rushes to the scene: Journalists seek first-hand accounts of events. Governmental and non-governmental humanitarian agencies start delivering life-saving aid, and the affected population struggles to locate friends, family members and the basic supplies they need to survive the aftermath. In this sudden and hurried environment, the local community is in dire need of information: How to find missing relatives? How and where to receive aid? Who is coordinating the response? They also need to be able to tell their stories and advocate their needs. Media and aid agencies alike frequently interact with the local community in an emergency context. Past experiences have shown that there is a fine line between interaction and exploitation, between the limits of available information and the spread of rumors, between giving people a voice and not hearing that voice speak. How can we ensure that the affected population can participate in communications after an emergency? What roles and responsibilities do the different stakeholders — media, aid agencies, government entities, the affected community itself — have? This workshop convenes experts who have led communications in emergencies in different functions — as journalists, aid agency communications staff or as facilitators for local media and community groups. They will discuss the challenges and possibilities of bringing affected communities’ voices to a broad stage, as well as practical dilemmas that occur during such times of crisis.

Turning disinterest into engagement through innovative media formats
Interest in the European Union (EU) and civic participation in public discussions on issues pertaining to the EU are low throughout Europe. One example of this can be seen in the low turnout of voters in European elections. Furthermore, euroscepticism feeds a negative image of the EU. Is the negative image the only reason for a lack of interest in European issues or is it caused by a lack of information? Media organizations and research institutions that play a key role in the sociocultural and political arenas pose the question as to how this lack of interest could be turned around. As mass media serve as intermediaries between political systems and their citizens, their most important task is to create a public audience and — in the best-case scenario — one that engages in certain thematic discourses. Information on EU issues is therefore extremely important. In line with the large number of EU member states, there are many national broadcasters and a range of very different media landscapes and systems. There are also stations that focus on European issues. When it comes to motivating the citizens of Europe to take action on European issues, is it enough to establish broadcasting formats in the conventional way or do we need other media formats? This workshop focuses on innovative approaches, initiatives and media formats currently being employed. Are they effective tools for motivating citizens to take action on European issues? Are there other ways to empower EU citizens? Experts from media organizations, research institutions and relevant initiatives will define the challenges in establishing a European format for citizen engagement. Is it possible or a utopian ideal?

The power of the neighborhood: How local media organize participation and how DW Akademie supports this
Participatory media do not require Facebook and Twitter to be effective. As a future basic element of journalistic work, participation can assume very direct forms of interaction. Community-based media in developing countries have always incorporated participatory components. Now they are combining these familiar forms of personal sharing with new technologies. This workshop presents innovative participatory approaches from three regional media projects.
Each of them is a remarkable initiative in which local media have found exciting means of integrating their audiences, and DW Akademie supports all three in varying ways. What have these projects achieved and which challenges proved to be the most difficult to overcome? What do both listeners and content producers have to say about them? What do the initiatives have in common and what are their differences? And what does meaningful support for these projects look like in practice? The session includes presentations and discussions about a Cambodian project that uses techniques of data-driven journalism to develop stories; a Colombian initiative to compile databases of regional corruption and train local journalists to use it; and a local newspaper project in Upper Egypt, where citizens and aspiring journalists publish their own newspapers and websites.

Room for all? How social entrepreneurs in media are forging a new infrastructure for participation
Our world has changed profoundly. New technologies and globalization have transformed traditional power structures, opening opportunities for millions to participate in society in ways that they could not before. And change is accelerating.
A world of rapid change is a complex landscape to navigate. Instead of hierarchies and institutions, we now live in a more decentralized world. Knowledge is no longer enough: everyone must be creative, flexible, and empathic problemsolvers who collaborate and create in changing environments. New rules are now emerging in the media, too, in many cases shaped by the innovations of social entrepreneurs whose initiatives are causing us to reimagine the roles of audience, journalist, and media enterprise. They are improving access to information and fostering broader and more effective civic participation. This workshop will take a closer look at this emerging infrastructure by examining the strategies of key social entrepreneurs: a) Reaching out to new audiences — Ken Banks, who has developed channels that connect otherwise excluded citizens; b) Financing independent media — Sasa Vucinic, whose new initiative converts audiences into investors, providing new capital to independent news organizations; c) Engaging marginalized actors in the production of news — Cristi Hegranes, whose network enables coverage of development issues typically overlooked by mainstream media; d) Strengthening information communities — Sascha Meinrath, whose technologies ensure that all people gain secure and affordable access to Internet service. After a brief introduction of each case , the floor will be open to discuss questions such as: How should journalism be financed? Where is the line between activation and advocacy in media? What tools are available for making information accessible and understandable for larger audiences? What media skills must citizens develop to improve participation? How do we define ‘quality’ in journalism?

See YOU in the future — New ways of digital storytelling
Digital storytelling has proven to be an effective tool to disseminate, present and impart content of all imaginable kinds. Abstract or complex topics take on the form of short, individual and easily comprehensible films that highlight the relevant aspects of a story — thereby delivering the “message” in a convincing manner. Used in educational, political and participatory contexts — for (inter-)cultural, historical and sustainable purposes — digital storytelling has found its way from telling personal stories to an outstanding instrument that supports people on their way “from information to participation”. The method of digital storytelling is well-established, used all over the world and has evolved in many different formats.
This workshop shows not only the classical approach to digital storytelling but also focuses on new methods, tools and channels. We will look for the new, the special, and the unusual, by exploring the following questions: - Does digital storytelling help overcome borders? - How is digital storytelling used in areas of conflict? - In which ways do professionals apply digital storytelling? - What are current and future tools and platforms? - Can your career benefit from digital storytelling? These and further aspects will be presented by the panelists and discussed with workshop participants to gain insight into digital storytelling and its future.

A blueprint for building communities: Applying community-building practices to a news media company
One path for transforming a local media company for the digital age is to build brand not simply around the traditional notions of news and advertising, but around a deeper idea of civic leadership and engagement. This workshop will examine the idea of redefining the business model through the narrative facilitation of community building, not just news or journalism. By helping people in the community organize around shared interests and common issues, how can the media industry create a connection for its newsrooms to make their products stronger and more relevant? Industry innovators will discuss the concept of applying community-building practices to a news media company.

Big media vs. social media in the global, nonviolent and humanist revolution
More and more people are increasingly concerned about the influence of banking officials on the economic system and government policy around the world. Yet, can we really rely on the media moguls who control the supply of information to tell us the whole story? Despite whistleblowers such as Edward Snowden and U.S. Army Private Manning exposing the depths of surveillance employed to prevent any substantial change from affecting the status quo, information is still sufficiently controlled to keep the population subdued beneath its comfort blanket of reality TV, celebrities and soccer. Nevertheless, social change is bubbling all over the world and on the rise. Expressions of social unrest in such unlikely places as Iceland and Sweden show that social conflict is just as possible in the supposedly most-developed parts of the world as it is in any dictatorship of the Middle East. Social media is the tool of choice for disaffected groups around the world and creates the conditions for manifestations everywhere to not only flourish, but also for those protests to recognize the same roots of the conflict at play, whether it’s over a new shopping center in Istanbul or an increase in bus fare in São Paolo. The more the protesters adhere to a strategy of nonviolence, the more the affected state sends in agents provocateurs to destabilize it towards violence. Pressenza’s international network of editors promoting peace, nonviolence, humanism and the fight against discrimination are uniquely placed to report on such protests and invite you to this workshop to talk about how new media and social media are supporting the nonviolent revolution required to bring a dignified life to all inhabitants of the planet.

The rise of citizen journalism and its impact on traditional journalism in Russia
Russian bloggers don’t post photos of their cats in their journals. Or do they? Who are Russia’s citizen journalists — are they activists, politicians or actually journalists? Why can mainstream media no longer afford to ignore bloggers? Is there a war of blogs or a war on blogs and how has the Internet become a digital battlefield with new laws being used as weapons against citizen activists to restrict freedom of expression online? Social networks are also taking over traditional blogs. This workshop will track the evolution of the Russian blogosphere and how it has changed over the last ten years to become a major phenomenon in the Russian and global media environment. Members of the Russian media community, scholars, journalists and bloggers will discuss these and other questions related to citizen journalism in Russia. The workshop will also look at the prospects of media development in the country given the fact that its population is swiftly moving online, making the Internet the Number One source of information for younger audiences.

The Bobs Awards Ceremony 2014
The Bobs Awards recognize outstanding contributions to international freedom of expression by honoring blogs, social media projects and websites. Since its inception in 2004, Deutsche Welle’s annual award for independent online media has established itself as the premier international and multilingual competition for online campaigns and initiatives. The jury-selected winners of the 2014 Bobs Awards will receive their prizes at this ceremony. The event presents a unique opportunity for conference participants to meet exceptional activists engaged in shaping the future of their societies and to talk to people whose voices are too often silenced by censorship and oppression. This year the Global Media Forum Award will honor the local language Indian weekly newspaper Khabar Lahariya, which focuses on participation and interaction. We also invite you to join us in congratulating the other five winners of The Bobs 2014 Jury Awards and meet representatives from the Visualizing Palestine project or the Bangla Braille initiative from Bangladesh.

Global and participatory — political opinion-making in the digital age
Multimedia diversity and digital connectivity have opened up new forms of political participation, such as e-government and e-diplomacy. While these can serve to lessen a growing alienation between citizens and politicians, they also raise serious questions: How can we ensure privacy protection, for example for informants? What role do whistleblowers play and what are the limits of freedom of the press and expression? And lastly, is there any conceivable means of ever reining in digital networking?

How digital activism can help achieve real change
The bashing about “clicktivism” is old hat — and yet in vogue as ever. Similarly old is the postulation that online and offline activism must mesh effectively to achieve concrete political results. Despite this discussion and the distinction between both spheres being rather 1.0, it is very persistent. Firstly, because it is true that effective campaigns must mobilize both online and offline and secondly, because connecting both is easier said than done. Collecting many signatures for an online petition, that’s feasible. But how do you get at least a fraction of your petition signers to participate in an “offline” campaign action or even meet with policy-makers? Moving so-called “slacktivists” up the famous “ladder of engagement” can be very wearisome — and often unsuccessful. Cultural pessimists and campaigners alike are therefore frustrated with digital activism. On the other hand, low-bar digital means of participation allow people with little time or without a previous activism biography to support a political cause. In other words, online elements of participation can make a campaign more inclusive and impactful — especially when combined with compelling campaign actions that go beyond simply clicking a link.

Promoter or preventer? The role of journalists in e-participation
“Power to the people” is an all-important principle to democracy since individuals have a strong desire to have a say in matters that concern them. Citizens want to be part of the decision-making processes in their communities, and e-participation is one possible means of doing so. But how, for example, can citizens be expected to understand the complex mechanisms behind municipal budgets? What opportunities do participatory tools — such as open participatory budgeting — offer to foster interaction between citizens and policy-makers? And what are their challenges and risks? In cases like these, journalists and the media play a special role. To what extent do they influence the acceptance, progress, success or failure of participatory processes? What is the relationship between conventional media — newspapers, radio and television — and digital and social media in this context? Are there differences from country to country? And how do they deal with nations’ differing levels of technological advancement? An international panel will discuss these and related questions by examining practical examples from a variety of countries. Israeli journalist Liat Schlesinger will elaborate on participatory projects in Israel and Mexico. Dr. Mayte Peters from Publixphere.de, a German-language online information and discussion service, will present ideas on sparking political interest in young adults in a European context. Michelle Ruesch from www.buergerhaushalt.org/en — an online portal on participatory budgeting and related issues — informs about current projects in Germany and other countries.

Strengthening freedom of information and source protection worldwide
Digital technologies have enabled journalists around the world to deliver the news more directly and have established new ways to investigate stories. They are, however, also used to spy on supposedly private communications and suppress journalists, activists and bloggers. Many Western companies are complicit in human rights abuses by “Enemies of the Internet” such as Bahrain, Ethiopia and Syria, as they supply the tools necessary to implement intrusive spying. To date, Western governments have largely failed to restrict this cynical market.
This panel will discuss different vectors to strengthen human rights, such as freedom of information and freedom of expression, in the light of international law and the most recent decisions made by members of the Wassenaar Arrangement.

Traditional media in Africa is no longer the only source of information across the continent. Members of the public have increasingly been encouraged to submit their own content as mobile reporters or bloggers. To what extent does this shift towards public participation signify a democratization of conventional media? Should this change be seen as a threat to credible and authentic journalism or as an opportunity to promote transparency among the media establishment?

The role of (social) media in promoting and sustaining democratic governance
This year the Friedrich Naumann Foundation for Freedom presents a panel of experts from Ukraine, Lebanon, Egypt, India and Myanmar who will discuss the role of (social) media in promoting and sustaining democratic governance. On the one hand they will look at new social media’s part in initiating processes of political change (e.g. Facebook revolution). Another aspect — one that has been largely overlooked in media policy debates to date — is the media’s role in stabilizing processes of political reform and supporting democracy. Right now this debate bears special significance in transition countries in Asia, the Arab region and Eastern Europe. But also in countries considered to be well-established democracies, this continues to be a factor of great importance. Dr. Ronald Meinardus, who directed projects for the Middle East and North Africa with the Friedrich Naumann Foundation for Freedom in Cairo for more than seven years, will moderate the panel discussion.

Whistleblowers, activists, journalists: Is advocacy journalism the journalism of the digital age?
Journalists shouldn’t identify themselves with a specific cause. However, journalists like Glenn Greenwald, who published the documents provided by NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden, disagree. He believes that journalists can also be activists. With a new project financed by eBay founder Pierre Omidyar called The Intercept, Greenwald is carrying out a journalistic mission. “Our longer-term mission is to provide aggressive and independent adversarial journalism,” he says. In the age of Wikileaks and social media, important questions arise: To what extent should journalists be allowed to express an opinion and take a stance in their reporting, and which platforms will serve to inform us in the future?

Western surveillance technologies and “ungoverned spaces” — Challenges to protect (media) freedom
For years, European and North American companies have supplied states such as Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Bahrain and Syria with the necessary technological infrastructure for filtering the Internet, blocking websites, monitoring e-mail traffic or tapping and locating mobile phones. Among the suppliers are large telecommunications groups, such as Nokia Siemens and Ericsson as well as a good number of medium-sized companies that have specialized in programming spyware. Indeed, the delivery of such technologies to repressive and authoritarian regimes is potentially no less problematic than the export of assault rifles or battle tanks. Surveillance technologies play a decisive role when it comes to locating, arresting, torturing and even murdering alleged dissidents.
At the same time, the US Administration has been pursuing the concept of ‘ungoverned spaces’ since the 9/11 terrorist attacks. To construct ungoverned spaces, sharply delineated borders are established the transgression of which will turn a person invisibly into a suspect and potential actor of violence who is thus subject to state involvement that can reach from increased monitoring to even the application of violence. Political spaces of the state of emergency are identified, categorized and defined, which legitimate actions considered to be a challenge to valid regulations. This, for instance applies to cyberspace as much as remote areas in Somalia or Afghanistan. Behind this background the workshop seeks to discuss the following questions: - Social media and online journalism under attack. How state authorities misuse the Internet to intimidate and suppress the opposition (Egypt and other cases) - How do surveillance technologies work? - The cyberspace as “ungoverned space”: What is the logic behind this concept and where do we meet it? - Challenges in export control: How can a comprehensive, institutionally supported set of rules and regulations, which foresees a general authorization when exporting security and surveillance technologies suited to violate human rights be implemented? 72

Transatlantic talk
Disclosure of the United States NSA’s secret surveillance activities has deeply shaken transatlantic relations. At the same time, allegations of industrial espionage weigh heavily on negotiations for a proposed transatlantic trade and investment partnership. How grave is the crisis in transatlantic relations? What is the proper balance between the civil right to privacy versus limitations for the sake of security? In light of the resulting loss of trust, how can the transatlantic partners deal with international challenges — such as the civil war in Syria, withdrawal from Afghanistan and Iran’s nuclear ambitions — with a shared sense of responsibility?

Participatory story — Be a part of it
In the course of only one and a half hours this workshop will let you experience how a digital story is created from scratch. We will start out with just the idea, work on the storyline, include all the material, and at the end of the workshop a digital story will be completed and screened.
You will see how audio is recorded, pictures are taken and videos are made, material is edited and the story is finalized. We will demonstrate the use of the necessary hardware and soft ware in a production environment that allows you to follow every step of the process. The participatory story is a special form of digital storytelling that can be used — for example — for preparing cultural, historical or societal topics for presentation by groups such as school classes, seminars or conferences. It encourages the creation of a digital story with more than one storyteller or narrator, without ever neglecting the principles of a classic digital story. And what's best is that YOU participate live in the process and are a part of the final story. You want to know how? Join us on Tuesday, July 1, 2014 at the Global Media Forum.

Big data, big insights: Mapping climate-induced displacement with mobile data
In November 2013, Typhoon Haiyan displaced an estimated four million people in the Philippines. Only a month earlier, cyclonic storm Phailin forced the government to evacuate nearly nine million people in Eastern India. As extreme weather events increase in frequency and severity, more and more people will be forced to leave their homes. Where do these displaced populations go? Is aid infrastructure in place when they arrive? Do they return home after the disaster has passed?
Mobile Data, Environmental Extremes and Population (MDEEP) is a cutting-edge project at the junction of big data, climate change, and human welfare. It is the first time mobile call data records (CDRs) have been used to assess climate impacts. The research findings have strong implications for capacity building in disaster preparedness and response, as well as needs assessment. MDEEP started just after Cyclone Mahasen hit Bangladesh in May 2013 and affected more than 1.3 million people. MDEEP’s researchers from the United Nations University Institute for Environment and Human Security (UNU-EHS) and Flowminder.org have analyzed anonymous mobile data from more than five million users provided by Grameenphone, the largest mobile phone services operator in Bangladesh, and will present their initial findings from Cyclone Mahasen at the workshop. As more people are affected by extreme weather, the media play a crucial role in shaping the wider dialogue on environmental migration. Anonymized CDRs used in this project offer precise and reliable data on a very large scale, which will be presented visually with maps and figures, making it easier for journalists to collaborate with researchers on such a complex issue. The period following a disaster is chaotic and rife with misinformation. This workshop will explore how the media can use the maps and analyses generated by novel and big datasets to verify information following a disaster and how they can more accurately report on the struggles and challenges of environmental migrants.

An ice age for privacy? The rights to free speech, information and privacy versus mass surveillance
“Freedom of expression cannot be ensured without respect to privacy in communications.” (Frank La Rue, United Nations Special Rapporteur on Freedom of Expression and Opinion) In June 2013, whistleblower Edward Snowden decided that the public should know about the activities being carried out by the United States’ National Security Agency (NSA). Via the media he revealed what he thought should no longer go unnoticed: The excessive surveillance of millions of Internet and mobile phone users worldwide — a major threat to people’s right to privacy. The right to privacy is often understood as an essential requirement for the realization of the right to freedom of expression. Undue interference in peoples’ privacy can — directly and indirectly — limit the free development and exchange of ideas, which are vital to every democracy. Over the last several years, many countries have implemented access to information laws. However, more and more information of public interest is being withheld in the name of national security. At the same time, many states make use of mass surveillance and disregard the right to privacy of millions of people — again in the name of national security. Several human rights issues are at stake: The human right to information is restricted by public interest issues. The human right to privacy is menaced by excessive surveillance. Free speech is endangered. Who guarantees the availability of information when it is unduly withheld? Whistleblowers and the media alike have a very important role, bearing a special responsibility towards the public. How can they be protected? Article 17 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights prohibits arbitrary or unlawful interference with anyone’s privacy or correspondence. How can the right to privacy be better protected, even in the context of extraterritorial surveillance? Where is the line between security interests and the individual’s right to privacy? 80

Revolution postponed. The Arab Spring and Africa
Whether protesting against higher fuel prices or against authoritarian regimes, Africans in nations ranging from Angola to Ethiopia have taken to the streets in the face of political adversity to air their discontent. Organizing via social networks, blogs or spokespeople living in exile abroad, the protestors have met repressive responses from their governments. Has the revolution in Africa failed, or has it merely been postponed? Social media and human rights activists will be discussing these and related questions. Inspired by the Arab Spring, a youth movement formed in Angola in 2011 to protest against President José Eduardo dos Santos. The demonstrations were typically met with fierce government resistance and crushed before they could gain a foothold. Three activists were killed. In spring 2011, the slogan in Ethiopia was “Beka”, Amharic for “enough”. A widespread campaign, driven mainly by the diaspora and social media, protested against the government of the late Prime Minister, Meles Zenawi. “We are not worried that there will be a north Africa-type revolution in Ethiopia. It's simply not possible” was his laconic response. And in fact, the uprising died out virtually overnight after a much-anticipated “Day of Rage” on May 28. In Zimbabwe in February 2011, President Robert Mugabe ordered the arrest of 46 civil rights activists and trade unionists, charging them with high treason. The group’s crime had been to gather to watch a film about the revolutions in Egypt and Tunisia. Jenni Williams, of the women’s rights group WOZA, says it was a familiar scene in a country ruled by an authoritarian government. An eloquent and outspoken activist, she has been arrested no fewer than 43 times by Mugabe’s security forces.

And the ICT4kids Oscar goes to...: Good practice in engaging children and youth in development
Information and Communication Technologies for Development, also known as ICT4D, is an exciting, young interdisciplinary field of practice and study. Some argue that it could revolutionize how international development initiatives are run, offering tools such as SMS and social media to create direct engagement with project participants, beneficiaries and communities. In a recent report produced by the University of London’s ICT4D Centre at Royal Holloway for UNICEF, 35 experts in the area of child-related ICT4D were asked to discuss what worked and what didn’t. The interviews showed a strong consensus that participatory approaches increased the chances of project success. They also revealed a rising trend in involving young people in particular in more participatory forms, not just of project governance, but also more broadly in social and political discussions. Expert interviewees nominated notably inspiring projects involving children and youths. This workshop will include innovative individuals from those nominee projects who have stood out for using the potential of ICTs for participation in development processes. In addition to hearing about these and other initiatives, the audience is invited to also nominate further projects. There are no prizes to win but a lot of inspiring ideas and good practices to share!

Digital activism and social change: Views from the winners of The Bobs Awards
The Internet has provided valuable tools for social and political change throughout the world. People join campaigns, exchange information and work together for common causes. Strengthening participation and interaction are key to any project that aims to mobilize citizens online. How do successful ones achieve that? Which are best practices? Each of the winners of Deutsche Welle's international online activism award, The Bobs, has come to the Global Media forum with a story to tell focusing on their individual experiences. Some of them have to endure censorship and repression at home. This session aims to amplify the voices of activists who successfully strengthen freedom of speech throughout the Internet. With the emphasis on participation and interaction, the workshop will take place as a kind of "open living room", with the moderator only minimally guiding the conversation. Questions from the audience will be integrated from the beginning after a brief introduction of the panelists.

A case study in enabling residents from informal settlements to participate in decision-making
Many capitals of developing countries have slums with millions of residents. Who hears their voices? How can they possibly participate in the decision-making processes about issues that matter to them?
In 2010, the Voices of Africa Media Foundation launched an innovative media initiative that directly involves slum residents in Nairobi, Kenya. Known as the Nairobi Community Media House (NCMH), this successful initiative trains talented young people (20-25 years old) from the city’s many slums to become professional media filmmakers. The trainees also learn how to make money, allowing them to become financially independent reporters. One of their programs is the African Slum Journal (www.africanslumjournal.com). Another program is called Bunge Mtaani. The title is Kiswahili for “Parliament of the streets” and is meant to strengthen the citizens’ participation. Every month, the NCMH organizes an event in a different slum in Nairobi about a specific topic that matters to that particular settlement. The NCMH produces a documentary about the topic and plays it during the event. The residents discuss the video with the help of a moderator. The residents’ opinions are filmed, posted on the Internet and covered by a local radio and TV station. This concept enables the residents to raise their voices and participate in issues relevant to their lives. The structure of the Community Media House and Bunge Mtaani concepts will be presented in this workshop and the many challenges will be discussed.

Transcultural understandings of legitimacy: A pre-condition for global governance?
The legitimacy of global governance is challenged: African countries question the International Criminal Court and accuse it of pursuing only African cases and ignoring crimes in other parts of the world. The decision-making structures of the UN Security Council and of other International Organizations such as the IMF are criticized for not reflecting current configurations of power. And mass protests during meetings of the WTO and G8 shed light on the opposition of vocal sections of the public against global governance institutions. Shortfalls in legitimacy are a vital problem for the functioning of global governance. The more illegitimate actors perceive global governance, the less likely they will collaborate and the lower the degree of compliance. Achieving global legitimacy is thus of key importance in times of pressing global challenges. One key challenge to constructing legitimacy is the cultural diversity of an international order that has fundamentally changed with the emergence of new global powers. Two programs in Germany have taken up these challenges by working closely with participants from these emerging powers: The Managing Global Governance Programme by GIZ and the German Development Institute / Deutsches Institut für Entwicklungspolitik (DIE) and CrossCulture Internships by the Institut für Auslandsbeziehungen (ifa). By moving “from information to participation” they actively engage participants from different cultures in the joint creation of common values and norms which guide collective responses to global challenges. Why are institutions of global governance accused of lacking legitimacy? Is global governance a Western concept? What is the role of cultural diversity? How can global governance be constructed in a more legitimate way? Which role does transcultural dialogue play for creating common values and finding common solutions to global problems? These and other questions will be addressed by this panel of high-level experts, organised by the German Development Institute / Deutsches Institut für Entwicklungspolitik (DIE) — Germany’s leading development policy think tank.

Does Africa’s online revolution present an opportunity for democratization?
Anyone who has recently travelled through Africa will have noticed a widespread digital revolution. This is particularly true for the communications sector. The continent is now home to more than 700 million mobile phone owners. Second only to Asia, it is the largest market for mobile telephony and has the highest growth rates internationally. The number of Internet users is also set to rise sharply. While 167 million Africans are online today, the figure is projected to climb to an estimated 600 million by 2025. The repercussions of digitization in Africa can already be seen in many places, websites, social networks and YouTube videos. Digitization is enabling a growing number of people to participate in social and political processes. The digital revolution affects not only people’s personal living environments; its economic significance should not be underestimated. Forecasts indicate that online services could account for 10% of Africa’s gross domestic product by 2025. That’s $300 billion compared to $18 billion in 2013. The growth of digital media is also taking stronger influence on politics and the development of democracy in African countries. For a long time it was easy for authoritarian leaders to cut off their opponents’ access to state-owned media, stifling their basis for communication with voters. The Internet, social media and online TV have changed all that. Electronic media open up new possibilities for political competition, giving parties that previously had no chance of success the opportunity to include their messages in the opinion-making process and contributing to plurality and diversity. Africa’s digital revolution is a phenomenon that deserves much more attention in Europe. This workshop will explore the opportunities and challenges that digitization brings for the continent’s democratic development. An especially close look will be given to the question of how the new opportunities presented by Africa’s online revolution can be used by political parties to improve communications with their electorates and promote the process of democratization throughout the continent.

Participation through self-education: How digital literacy enables young people to become change-makers
From information to participation — for the first time in human history, tools are available that enable basically everyone to play an active role in society and make his or her own voice heard. The key to this is digital literacy and a generation of digital natives that have grown up with a whole new set of tools and the option of educating themselves. This session examines the role of young people in creating new ways of digital participation and showcases exemplary practices of digital projects for social good. What makes young people become digital activists? And why would some of them dedicate all of their time to campaigning for issues such as human rights, transparency or gender equality? The session also engages experts to discuss the settings that spark creativity and make young people participate actively in society. It also takes a critical look at what young people demand from their educational institutions and political leaders to create a more active society. The session is hosted by the organizers of the Digital Participation Camp, an international initiative that draws young people together once a year to live, learn and work collectively to create new websites, apps and campaigns for social good. This fishbowl session not only talks about participation but also actively engages it. A team of social media moderators will filter contributions from the audience throughout the session and regularly incorporate them on stage. Two open seats will serve as a direct link to engage the audience.

Participation and cyber-security — Friends or foes?
Disclosure of the NSA's global surveillance activities dealt a severe blow to people's trust in digital society. Although improving civic engagement, transparency and democratic participation are hardly conceivable without modern information and communication technologies, this one high-profile example clearly shows the high price to be paid. Are such serious disadvantages and potential threats simply to be accepted as par for the course? What can be done to counteract widespread loss of personal privacy? And what serious challenges lurk ahead for people, businesses, media and society at large in the shape of cyber crime, cyber terrorism, cyber espionage and cyber diplomacy?

Cyber attacks, energy security and terrorism — A NATO perspective on emerging security challenges
International terrorism, cyber attacks and energy security — today, these and other emerging challenges pose a considerable threat to international security, critical infrastructures and society at large. Given the close linkages between these growing threats, the cyber attacks and terrorist strikes that have been witnessed in recent years are likely to be just the tip of the iceberg; political observers and security experts agree that, if orchestrated by political adversaries, these new instruments of disruption can have a substantial impact on open societies. However, these threats cannot be tackled with traditional military means alone. In the globalized security environment of the 21st century, the alliance therefore need to be prepared for ever more complex and far-reaching security threats, demanding robust capabilities in many new areas. This is why NATO has set up a new division dedicated to “Emerging Security Challenges” that addresses the main risks of tomorrow to security in the light of cooperative security. These challenges are being addressed in close cooperation with partner countries, notably through the Science for Peace and Security Programme that ensures a comprehensive approach across these various challenges based on civil science, innovation and beyond. But what exactly do these new threats mean to NATO member states? What are their main security implications? What are the best ways to deal with these challenges? And what role can the international community and NATO in particular play in this context? This workshop addresses these questions and offers an insider perspective on recent developments in the fast-paced security landscape. Leading officials of the NATO Emerging Security Challenges Division will engage with participants on key issues surrounding the evolving risk environment and provide insights into how the alliance is developing its responses to the threats of the 21st century.

Digital media caught between revolution and information — The case of Ukraine
Ousted Ukrainian president Viktor Yanukovych’s decision to suspend preparations for signing an association agreement with the EU in Vilnius sparked a wave of antigovernment protests in Ukraine at the end of November 2013. Using social media for self-organization, Ukrainians started gathering on the central square of Kyiv — the Maidan. The demonstrations, which quickly became known as Euromaidan, became an arduous political conflict between the protestors and the Ukrainian government, resulting not only in a political revolution, but also leading to international crisis when Russia seized control of the Crimean peninsula. Since its beginning, the Ukrainian crisis has been accompanied by a storm of mutual information attacks among conflicting parties. National and international media were caught up in an information war trying to get a grip on what was happening. Digital media had a crucial impact on the sequence of events. Social media, such as Facebook and Twitter, connected thousands of people who took to the streets and served as a coordination platform for all kinds of activities on the Maidan. Social networks made it possible to disseminate urgent information, collect financial support and,seek medical aid. Journalists used digital media to cover events and take advantage of new opportunities. Professional journalists and citizen journalists alike launched several online video streams to broadcast the events in central Kyiv and other hotspots in Ukraine. On the other side of the coin, the pressure on independent media outlets in Russia increased and the state-controlled media in Russia portrayed events from a biased viewpoint. Media reporting in the United States, Europe, Ukraine and Russia portrayed different, sometimes mutually exclusive pictures of the political situation. The case of Ukraine shows the strengths and the challenges that digital media face in the 21st century: Does the Internet help to disseminate the truth? Or is it a realm of half-truths and propaganda lies? Is it possible to confront propaganda without becoming part of it? What can journalists do to prevent themselves from becoming victims of an information war? And how can digital media contribute to a reconciliation of Russians and Ukrainians?

Co-creating a new multimedia format with audiences — Case study of El Toque
How do you create a participative, multimedia format in cooperation with audiences and partners? What is involved in the editorial process? What are the costs and benefits? Last year, the Spanish editorial team of Radio Netherlands Worldwide (RNW) created a new multi-media format, El Toque. The aim was to address the needs and wishes of young audiences in an interactive and participative way. Social media are at the heart of the format and audiences contribute as co-creators of content. RNW editors Pablo Gamez and Pablo Eppelin will share their insights into what this means for editorial processes and describe the lessons learned.

From access to action: Understanding the link between information and participation
Hearing a surprising fact may trigger someone to speak out, and partaking in public discussions often leads to new questions. Information and participation are two sides of one coin. They mutually reinforce each other, and sometimes they even form the basis for the other to exist. But how exactly does access to information and its quality influence and encourage participation?
Participation and access to information are human rights. They carry with them legal obligations that bind governments, and even define the central objectives of legitimate governance: securing free, active and meaningful participation of citizens in decision-making that affects their lives. Freedom of information is protected by law in nearly one hundred countries. However, furnishing citizens with information and creating effective participation is an ongoing challenge in many places. Access to facts and figures alone does not mean they are understood. And articulation in itself does not constitute a critical debate. Understanding the dynamics between citizens' needs for information and participation is an important challenge that concerns human rights, good governance and the media. What kind of information is useful and understandable to citizens? What is the relevance of laws on freedom of information? What roles do state actors, civil society and media play in empowering the people? And in which conditions does a passive media consumer become an active participant in public dialogue? These are some of the central questions this workshop sets out to assess. The panelists are global experts on freedom of expression, access to information and participation. Their experiences include a number of innovative projects that have brought together human rights institutions, civil society organizations, academic and educational institutions, state actors and the media.

Citizen privacy and data protection: digital security training for social media activists and dissidents
After the Snowden NSA revelations, and tales of malware sent to reporters from China and Vietnam, journalists are right to ask themselves two questions: How can they protect their own privacy from online attackers? And how can they reassure their sources that they still have the power to keep information confidential and identities safe? This workshop will focus on the threats to journalists from high-tech attackers, including rogue governments, law enforcement and criminal organizations. Participants will discuss examples, how to model and measure the risks journalists might face, and the tools and simple procedures reporters can implement right now to protect themselves.

Participation and the global development agenda
United Nations (UN) organizations in Bonn will host a plenary session on civil society participation and ways in which people from all over the world can engage with the UN, and with each other, to shape the global development agenda.
In line with the overall conference theme "From Information to Participation. Challenges for the Media", the plenary discussion will engage the audience and give concrete examples of what the UN is doing to boost the opportunities for individuals and media to have a say in global debates including through new forms of participation such as online campaigns, apps and social media tools — one example being the issue of what should come after the Millennium Development Goals in 2015. The panel will consist of a mix of staff members representing the UN across all levels.

CryptoParty: From theory to practice — to awards protect your data theLearn Bobshow 2012 ceremony
Even when researching in free and democratic countries, journalists have to mitigate the threat of being observed. While physical surveillance has become a common challenge with well-known techniques and countermeasures, the task of protecting themselves and their sources in the age of worldwide electronic communications covers a broad and steadily changing set of risks that somehow have to be handled. Smartphones and laptops might get bugged with malware, hard drives and memory cards might get stolen, chats and e-mail communication might be intercepted. Even a simple online research can be observed. Data encryption is the obvious answer to these threats, but firstly, many crypto tools turn out to be snake oil, and secondly, the remaining tools aren’t always easily manageable. And ultimately, no tool offers complete safety; it can only help to mitigate a specific attack vector. Since 2012, the global CryptoParty initiative has been helping people with no or limited technical background to install and use cryptographic software on their computers. CryptoParties focus on practical knowledge and narrow theory down to its absolute minimum. In several workshops, attendees will get an overview of several encryption and anonymization tools and whistleblower-platform software. While providing the default CryptoParty-program at each workshop we put special emphasis on the explanation of certain topics in the center of each workshop. 30 June | 4:00 – 5:30 p.m. | Annex CryptoParty Focus: How to encrypt e-mails — Dive into the ‘dark art’ of encryption key management and learn to secure your e-mail communicaton successfully. 1 July | 4:00 – 5:30 p.m. | Annex CryptoParty Focus: How to browse and read anonymously — Learn how to browse the net and read online-documents without leaking your identity. 2 July | 12:30 – 2:00 p.m. | Annex CryptoParty Focus: Understanding whistleblowing — Learn to handle important technical basics of socially-responsible source-management in the digital age. Please note that the number of seats is limited to 30 participants. First come, first serve.
