The Lived Experience of Whistleblowers and Partnerships to advance Whistleblowers’ Rights and Protection

Whistleblowers are a driving force behind the fight against corruption but often face repercussions and outright threats, while their reports are ignored or buried. Featuring first-hand accounts of how systems have failed whistleblowers, the workshop will present successful collaborative initiatives – from partnerships and networks to advocacy, digital tools to advice and litigation – that support whistleblowers’ protection and access to safe reporting channels where reports received are taken seriously and have impact.
