It is expected to be attended by more than 800 people, including tech entrepreneurs, chief executive officers and financial directors, corporate advisors, investors, and tech consultants and commentators. </p> <p>The tech for good award specifically recognises technology that is harnessed to deliver beneficial social, cultural and/or environmental outcomes. The other organisations and companies shortlisted are Exscientia AI Limited, First Light Fusion Limited, Greyparrot AI Ltd, Moneyhub Financial Technology Ltd, and R;pple Suicide Prevention Charity.</p> <p>“This latest success is a testament to the power of eyeWitness technology,” said Wendy Betts, Director of eyeWitness. “Seeking justice for international atrocity crimes is a long and difficult process, particularly for those in remote locations with limited resources. eyeWitness proves that we can use technology to break down these barriers and make a demonstrable impact.”</p> <p>Launched by the <a href="https://www.ibanet.org/" title="Go to www.ibanet.org" class="external" target="_blank">International Bar Association</a> in 2015, the eyeWitness to Atrocities camera app is used by hundreds of journalists, activists, and documenters around the world to capture verifiable footage of international atrocity crimes. As well as having vital security features for those documenting in high-risk locations, the app works offline and supports anonymous documentation. All footage is stored and protected by <a href="https://www.lexisnexisrolfoundation.org/" title="Go to www.lexisnexisrolfoundation.org" class="external" target="_blank">LexisNexis Legal & Professional.</a></p> <p>Moreover, eyeWitness works closely with app users to help bring perpetrators to justice by delivering footage to accountability mechanisms such as the International Criminal Court and the United Nations. Most recently, eyeWitness filed a <a href="https://phr.org/news/ngos-call-on-new-un-commission-to-investigate-russias-bombardment-of-ukrainian-hospitals/" title="Go to www.phr.org" class="external" target="_blank">joint submission</a> to the United Nations Independent International Commission of Inquiry on Ukraine regarding attacks on Ukrainian hospitals and healthcare.</p> <p>This year’s winners of the UK tech awards will be revealed at the awards event on 2nd November at the Westminster Park Plaza, London.</p> <h6 class="share">Related links:</h6> <ul class="include-bullet related-links"> <li><a href="Making-public-interest-technology-safer-for-human-rights-defenders">Making public interest technology safer for human rights defenders</a></li> <li><a href="Choosing-a-secure-camera-app">Choosing a secure camera app to document and monitor human rights abuses and atrocities</a></li> <li><a href="Combining-our-technology-with-satellite-imagery-to-uncover-environmental-crimes-in-The-Gambia">Combining our technology with satellite imagery to uncover environmental crimes in The Gambia</a></li> </ul> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div>  </div> <div id="footer"> <div class="footer"> <div class="col-12 col-sm-12 col-md-10 offset-md-1 col-wrap"> <div class="row no-margin connect-row"> <div class="col-12 col-sm-12 connect-col"><a title="Connect with us" href="connect.html" class="btn btn-primary btn-connect">Connect with us</a></div> </div> <div class="row no-margin connect-other-row"> <div class="col-12 col-sm-12" > <div class="connect-links-col"> <ul class="social"> <li><a title="Follow eyeWitness on Twitter" href="https://twitter.com/eyewitnessorg?lang=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener" ><img alt="Follow eyeWitness on twitter" class="social-icon" src="img/twitter.svg"></a></li> <li><a title="Follow eyeWitness on Facebook" href="https://www.facebook.com/eyewitnesstoatrocities/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" ><img alt="Follow eyeWitness on Facebook" class="social-icon" src="img/facebook.svg"></a></li> <li><a title="Subscribe to eyeWitness's Youtube channel" href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-cww3Wwuoz9GQ1dmBstxPg" target="_blank" rel="noopener" ><img alt="Subscribe to eyeWitness's Youtube channel" class="social-icon" src="img/youtube.svg"></a></li> </ul> <ul class="connect-links hidden-sm"> <li><a title="Press enquiries" href="press.html">Press enquiries</a></li> <li><a title="Technical support" href="connect.html#tech">Technical support</a></li> <li><a title="Partner with us" href="connect.html#partner">Partner with us</a></li> </ul> </div> </div> </div> <div class="row no-margin bottom-row"> <div class="col-12 col-sm-12"> <div class="bottom-col"> <ul class="photography"> <li><a title="Photography www.anastasiataylorlind.com" href="http://www.anastasiataylorlind.com/">Photography © www.anastasiataylorlind.com</a></li> </ul> <ul class="languages"> <li><a href="AR/welcome.html">العربية</a></li> <li><a href="ES/welcome.html">Español</a></li> <li><a href="FR/welcome.html">Français</a></li> <li><a href="RU/welcome.html">Русский</a></li> </ul> <ul class="other-links"> <li><a title="Read our user agreement" href="user-agreement.html">User agreement</a></li> <li><a title="Read our privacy policy" href="privacy-policy.html">Privacy policy</a></li> </ul> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="post-footer"> <div class="col-12 col-sm-12 col-md-10 offset-md-1 col-wrap"> <div class="row no-margin bottom-row"> <div class="col-12 col-sm-12"> <div class="bottom-col"> <ul> <li>eyeWitness to Atrocities charity number 1156242</li> </ul> <ul class="back-to-top-wrap"> <li> <a href="#one" title="Back to top" class="back-to-top"><i class="icon-sprite arrow-up"></i></a></li> </ul> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div></div>   <script src="js/jquery.min.js"></script> <script src="js/bootstrap.min.js"></script> <script src="js/eu-cookie-banner.js"></script> <script src="js/EW.js"></script>  </body> </html>
