 +===== Our Identity ===== 
 + 
 + 
 +**Technological**: Most structures involved in media support or protection of freedom of expression (RSF, CPJ, Freedom Voices) outsource technical skills and are rarely able to provide long-term technical support. N2H is a light and agile structure whose DNA is technology for all. Our experience allows us to be as close as possible to the needs of the field and to technical evolutions. Our knowledge and expertise in secured communication tools allows us to propose secured solutions adapted to each context. 
 + 
 +**Pedagogical**: journalists and activists are not IT experts. Our experience of running training courses in journalism schools and with experienced professionals has taught us to discuss technical subjects with a non-technical audience. 
 + 
 +**Field experience**: N2H regularly intervenes informally with journalists and activists who are facing censorship and surveillance issues. Our missions in the field have taught us how to implement effective and quick solutions in every context including non-democratic and authoritarian ones. 
 + 
 +**Network**: our strength relies in our network. During our missions, we have created a network of journalists, activists and technology experts in the field. N2H is the [first French member of the GIJN investigative journalism network](https://gijn.org/2018/10/17/gijn-welcomes-10-new-member-groups-from-9-countries/) and is a founding member of the [3i network of French-speaking investigative journalists](https://reseau3i.info/). We are also partners of [Africans Rising](https://www.africans-rising.org), a pan African NGO operating throughout sub-Saharan Africa. 
 + 
 +**Sharing**: in order to encourage the reuse and dissemination of information, all the tools we publish, educational materials or software, are distributed under a free license (CC BY SA) so that everyone can take advantage of them.[[https://www.africans-rising.org|Africans Rising]], a pan African NGO operating throughout sub-Saharan Africa.
