About Us
eyeWitness seeks to bring to justice individuals who commit atrocities by providing human rights defenders, journalists, and ordinary citizens with a mobile app to capture much needed verifiable video and photos of these abuses. eyeWitness then becomes an ongoing advocate for the footage to promote accountability for those who commit the worst international crimes.

Accountability
Everyone, no matter their position of power, should be responsible for their actions. The eyeWitness app helps you hold those responsible for the crimes you’ve witnessed to account.

How will using the eyeWitness app make justice more likely?
The eyeWitness app verifies your footage by recording the information needed to make your photos and video admissible in court. When you submit your footage to eyeWitness, a team of legal analysts review all information received to build dossiers that can later be sent to accountability mechanisms for justice. This is how we help get justice for the crimes you witness!
-
Do I have to disclose my identity or that of my organisation as a witness to a crime?
If you choose to be an anonymous user your identity will be protected, since we do not collect any identifying data from your device. Your safety is of utmost important to us, find out more about how the eyeWitness app can protect you from our Safety in Use page.

What about my own organisation’s goals for justice?
eyeWitness can certify your information and support the accountability initiatives of your own organisation. Our established contacts with both legal professionals and justice bodies can help maximise your efforts to seek justice. If you are an identified user or have an established agreement with us, your organisation will always be consulted on where your footage is sent and how it is used.
