For over 30 years, WITNESS has empowered people to harness the power of video and technology to tell their own stories, document human rights violations, and push for change. </span></p> <div class="ose-youtube ose-uid-dddba651398654592011ce463a6d302f ose-embedpress-responsive" style="width:854px; height:480px; max-height:480px; max-width:100%; display:inline-block;"><iframe allowFullScreen="true" title="WITNESS Named 2024 Peabody Global Impact Winner" width="854" height="480" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/GlconHI9SaA?feature=oembed&color=red&rel=0&controls=1&start=&end=&fs=0&iv_load_policy=0&autoplay=0&modestbranding=0&cc_load_policy=1&playsinline=1" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; encrypted-media;accelerometer;autoplay;clipboard-write;gyroscope;picture-in-picture clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe></div> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We are humbled to be a part of this tremendous legacy – recognizing <strong>this has been a year of extraordinary courage by journalists and frontline witnesses</strong> who have documented injustice, amplified resistance, and held a mirror to power around the world. Throughout our work, WITNESS has partnered with nearly 600 human rights groups, trained over 10,000 activists in 130+ countries, and reached millions with our digital resources on video-based strategies for justice.</span></p> <blockquote><p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><strong><em>“We share this recognition with our partners and the frontline journalists and communities who have, at great risk to themselves and with inspiring ingenuity, used video and technology to defend human rights the world over.”</em></strong> &#8211; </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Sam Gregory, Executive Director</span></p></blockquote> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">From putting the power of video in people’s hands by distributing cameras three decades ago, to being <strong>at the forefront of defending the trust-basis of video in the age of deepfakes and AI</strong>, WITNESS ensures that technology works for, not against, human rights and democracy. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Today, <strong>WITNESS fights to fortify the truth and defend the integrity and impact of critical video and storytelling</strong> . In the midst of a mega global election year affecting more than 40% of the world’s population, this award is particularly timely and spotlights the importance of centering underrepresented voices, preserving truth, and combating the threats of deceptive AI and mis- and disinformation. </span></p> <p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">We are thrilled to join the 84th Peabody awards ceremony in Los Angeles on June 9th along with an inspiring class of nominees being recognized for telling stories that matter. <strong>You may read the full Peabody Awards announcement <a href="https://peabodyawards.com/award-profile/witness/">here</a>.</strong> </span></p> <div class="sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled"><div class="robots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-icon-text sd-sharing"><h3 class="sd-title">Share this:</h3><div class="sd-content"><ul><li class="share-twitter"><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" data-shared="sharing-twitter-2302088" class="share-twitter sd-button share-icon" href="https://www.witness.org/witness-named-peabody-global-impact-winner/?share=twitter" target="_blank" title="Click to share on Twitter" ><span>Twitter</span></a></li><li class="share-facebook"><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" data-shared="sharing-facebook-2302088" class="share-facebook sd-button share-icon" href="https://www.witness.org/witness-named-peabody-global-impact-winner/?share=facebook" target="_blank" title="Click to share on Facebook" ><span>Facebook</span></a></li><li class="share-pinterest"><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" data-shared="sharing-pinterest-2302088" class="share-pinterest sd-button share-icon" href="https://www.witness.org/witness-named-peabody-global-impact-winner/?share=pinterest" target="_blank" title="Click to share on Pinterest" ><span>Pinterest</span></a></li><li class="share-email"><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" data-shared="" class="share-email sd-button share-icon" href="mailto:?subject=%5BShared%20Post%5D%20WITNESS%20Named%20Peabody%20Global%20Impact%20Winner&body=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.witness.org%2Fwitness-named-peabody-global-impact-winner%2F&share=email" target="_blank" title="Click to email a link to a friend" data-email-share-error-title="Do you have email set up?" data-email-share-error-text="If you&#039;re having problems sharing via email, you might not have email set up for your browser.
