For anyone working internationally, it is essential to understand these technologies and use them effectively. <br><br>The way technology has been used for human rights also has a lot to teach us here in Canada about how we run our campaigns, build movements and create change. As well, human rights issues - and the way that technology is also used by human rights violators in surveillance, censorship and propaganda - are important for all of us to be aware of.<br><br>This month, Chris from the Sentinel Project will introduce the principles needed to successfully incorporate technology into a campaign, drawing on mini case studies such as Kenya, Iran and the Arab Spring.
