Skopje: International Whistleblower Day
May 12, 2022 @ 9:45 am - May 13, 2022 @ 6:00 pm

The next national youth event promoting whistleblowing is scheduled to take place in Skopje, North Macedonia (12-13 May, 2022) as part of the Whistleblower Day celebration event. To maximize the advocacy impact of the event, RAI partnered with SEE Coalition on Whistleblower Protection and its Macedonian member organization SCOOP, as well as Youth Education Forum. On Day 1, the event will gather together representatives of public institutions, academia, CSOs, media and international community to celebrate whistleblowing and whistleblowers through discussion of whistleblower protection challenges, and ways to overcome them. On the first day, an award ceremony for journalists will be organized as well. On Day 2, youth will celebrate whistleblowers through a series of Ted-like talks and presentations to be delivered by RAI Secretariat experts and an international expert (Gerard Ryle), a Macedonian journalist and a whistleblower. During the reporting period, RAI Project Team worked with CSO partners on the concept and agenda of the event, securing speakers for the event, inviting participants and similar.
