Link of the Day: Witness

“Witness partners with human rights organizations around the world to bring the power of video into their existing campaigns and advance human rights causes around the world. For example, videos from these collaborations have helped shed light on the systemic repression of ethnic minorities in Burma, prosecute recruiters of child soldiers in the Democratic Republic of Congo and pass the first law protecting elders from abuse in the US.”
