Digital Security Guidelines for Human Rights Workers and Journalists in Ethiopia

Human rights defenders and journalists have been targeted by authorities in Ethiopia simply for expressing themselves freely and for standing for their beliefs. Many reports show that authoritarian governments hire international hacking companies to target human rights defenders. Ethiopia is one of those countries. This digital security guideline, developed in three languages - Afaan Oromo, Amharic and English - aims to empower human rights defenders with the skills to protect their presence online.
