Review

GW raises awareness on ICT policy processes on local, regional and global levels. Gives the creative input of a civil society perspective.

I think the project is amazing. For me it was important because it's a great opportunity to share information about a grassroot project globally. International character of reports make GISWatch unique: I don't know if there are any other opportunities to gather diverse experiences and specialists from different spheres.

- Daria Manshina, SYSMU, Russia- GISWatch author

The number of reports published on human rights on the internet in the last year alone is staggering. Who has the time to read them all? The good news is you don’t have to. If you take the time to read one report, make it GISWatch 2011.
