  • #Video4change Weekly Digest: Sept. 9, 2011 It's been an exciting week here at WITNESS. We released our "Cameras Everywhere" report and many of us have been sharing it and we're looking forward to discussion to come. The report surveys the current landscape of human rights, video and technology and makes recommendations to a variety of players in that landscape from technology companies to policy makers and civil society organizations.
