Review

2024 special edition - WSIS+20: Reimagining horizons of dignity, equity and justice for our digital future

"GISWatch is a unique experience, I think. Don´t know if there is a similar project in other fields. Having each year the possibility of tackling a particular issue of the field of rights and ICT, convoquing experts to analyse it from different perspectives and counting with about 50 countries in each edition, to get down that analysis to each particular territory is very valuable."
- Florencia Roveri, Nodo TAU, Argentina
"The GISWatch Project provides very useful insights into today's information society through the lens of different country experiences. A reader is allowed to properly gauge the ongoing interaction between technology and human rights, and its impact on people's day-to-day lives."
- Jamael Jacob, Foundation for Media Alternatives, Philippines- GISWatch author
"The project is very valuable and provides fantastic insight to the subjects as it tries to get first hand information from the writers from/within the countries in question. I think this way it creates an alternative resource to those that are prepared by Western institutions by going to these countries for few weeks only. Therefore GISWatch provides a much more authentic information."
- Gunes Tavmen, Hun Consulting, Turkey - GISWatch author
