iWatch Africa Funded Training of Journalists in Ghana

The project is aimed at training journalists (Including Student Journalists) in the use of data and investigative journalism tools to report on human rights abuses and corruption via the use of digital media platforms.

The project will also refer reported cases to police oversight bodies such as CHRAJ and PIPS for further investigation and necessary action.

The project will involve deploying a digital campaign as well as town hall meetings to educate citizens on their rights and responsibilities in their engagement with the police.
