Coming soon: Digital Safety Snacks by IWMF, ONA and PEN America

Along with our partners at the International Women’s Media Foundation and PEN America, we are excited to launch the Digital Safety Snacks video and workshop series on Monday, June 13.

Journalists around the world face targeted online abuse each day. We created this series of eight short, step-by-step videos to help you defend yourself. Plus, we are offering workshops with digital safety experts every other Thursday through July 28 to support your learning.

The first two video episodes will cover strategies to protect yourself from doxing, with an accompanying workshop on Thursday, June 16, 12 p.m. EDT (16:00 UTC). Register now for one or all four workshops.
