Privaterra : Introduction
Privaterra : Introduction: "Our Mission:
Privaterra's mission is to provide technological education and support for civil society organizations (Human Rights NGOs) in the area of data privacy, secure communications and information security

Our History:
Privaterra was formally established in December 2001. However, members of the group have conducted over a dozen workshops in privacy and security technology since 1999. Privaterra was formed from a group of like-minded individuals devoted to the cause of providing security to human rights workers using modern technology, specifically by ensuring privacy and security of communications and electronic data.

Privaterra is:

* Working with human rights organizations to survey their privacy and security needs
* Soliciting donations to try to meet these needs with hardware and software
* Conducting workshops to teach human rights workers how to improve their privacy and security situation
* Collecting a large pool of resources relating to privacy and security for both public use and to help fulfill our mandate"
