Algorithms, intermediaries, blockchain, data protection; some call our era the age of digital disruption, others call it the new dawn of opportunities. It seems safe to say that it is hard to keep track with technologies of the digital age, let alone work with them in a safe and professional way. ECPMF’s GAME CHANGER conference wants to discuss challenges and opportunities of new digital developments for the purpose of securing media freedom.

Workshop by the TACTICAL TECHNOLOGY COLLECTIVE on How to keep your data safe when travelling abroad.
Before and after the ECPMF Game Changer conference we offer an additional, repeated hands-on free workshop for journalists and media freedom activists. It explores ways to defend our sources, contacts and journalistic material when technology impacts on our civil liberties, our rights, and our autonomy. The Tactical Tech Collective is a non-profit organisation that’s been responding to these shifts for the past 15 years by finding practical solutions for a global network of activists, citizens and tech experts.

The workshop will teach practical methods of digital security, for example how to protect data held on digital devices when crossing national borders and what to do when the authorities demand access to cell phones, laptops et. al. for any reason. It will introduce protective software tools and explain the legal framework for dealing with tricky scenarios - for instance travelling to the US or participating in a demonstration. The hands-on workshop will mix teaching with interactive elements and discussions.

(lunchbreak 12.30-13.30)

PLEASE drop us a line until May 24 here (conference at ecpmf.eu) if and on what day you wish to attend the workshop. Thank you!
