For this report we have interviewed 12 journalists and human rights observers from Belarus, Russia, Ukraine, Iran, Taiwan and Hong Kong. While our previous needfinding research was solely focused on Ukraine, this time we have extended our sample to countries with authoritarian contexts and/or intense social conflicts (wars, protests or high rate of human rights violations). While the first report covered individuals as well as members of institutionalized media or NGOs, this time we have focused solely on people who worked in organizations as our main development priorities concern what we call “organizational support”, especially for so-called “asymmetric scenarios”.
