Case Study: Index on Censorship maps media freedom violations across Europe with Ushahidi

Index on Censorship - Customer Case Study

Index on Censorship, an organization that promotes freedom of expression, needed to map threats to media freedom across Europe. They chose to use the Ushahidi platform through its Solutions service to create a straightforward and effective way to collect and visualize reports of free speech violations.

Ushahidi implemented a white-label deployment of its crowdsourcing platform, handling all technical setup, hosting, and branding. This allowed Index on Censorship to focus on outreach and verification. The solution successfully mapped over 400 reports from 36 European countries, providing a vital advocacy and research tool to protect media freedom and democracy.
