"Investigating protest movements and the police response using open sources" with the Bellingcat team

In this week's stage talk we discuss open source research methods of covering protest movements and any corresponding violent action. Using the example of recent clashes in Bangladesh, our team unpack how they go about reporting on this topic, sharing their favourite resources, techniques and advice.

The talk was hosted by Charlotte Maher on Thursday August 15 2024. Music featured is courtesy of Artlist.
