Summary

Activists often risk their lives to record human rights abuse on video in order to expose injustice and create change. Because campaigns can take time to achieve results, WITNESS works with activists to ensure that their video is properly collected, documented, managed, and preserved to serve as an effective bulwark against powerful lies and denial. The Activists’ Guide to Archiving Video is a unique resource that offers reliable video archiving information to activists. The guide provides practical information on how to maintain video so that it remains safe and intact over time, and how to manage metadata so that videos can be identified, found and authenticated.
