Meet one of the investigators from Myanmar Witness working on an investigation as he explains how we use open-source intelligence.

Lead investigator Ben Strick explains how we collect and verify information - and how we ensure that it is used safely by our media partners.

"Myanmar in Turmoil" was an award-winning documentary produced by NHK World in collaboration with Myanmar Witness. We make our database of verified evidence available to trusted media partners in order to help them tell the world what is happening in Myanmar.

A large part of our work at Myanmar Witness involves collecting and verifying footage that is circulating on social media. This is so that those who commit human rights violations can one day be held to account.

One of our main outputs at Myanmar Witness are highly detailed Long Reports. These are original open-source investigations into a specific event or important topic related to human rights incidents in Myanmar.
