Forbidden Stories
Award: Graphite Pencil
Graphite Pencil / Creativity for Good / Service Innovations / 2019
Forbidden Stories is a digital platform dedicated to keep every journalist's stories alive. Forbidden Stories protects the stories of endangered journalists thanks to a digital safebox. Any journalist can back up their sensitive information, and in case something happens, a consortium of the most recognised journalists will get access to the data, complete the stories, and publish them broadly.
For the first forbidden story, 45 journalists from 18 news organizations collaborate to resume hundreds of thousands encrypted documents to complete the investigations of one murdered journalist.
