West Papua Media Alerts reports the latest independently verifiable news from West Papua. News reports are posted by journalists, both on the ground in West Papua, and around the world. West Papua Media was created in 2008 to close a critical information gap in coverage of the human catastrophe in West Papua. Long term human rights, environmental and human security investigators and journalists covering the Melanesian area were disturbed at the wilful ignorance of the Western media to the ongoing human rights abuses and corruption of the Indonesian occupation of West Papua.The mission of West Papua Media is simple: whilst reporting credibly on the issues facing West Papua today, we are here to assist in the development of a professional, robust, credible, and independent SAFE civil and investigative media capacity in West Papua. In short, Free Media for West Papua, helping the Voiceless Roar, with the skills to counter any attempt to silence that voice.We want to stop people from being afraid of speaking out, and we want West Papua's voice to be its weapon, to broadcast its songs for Freedom.See more at: http://www.sponsume.com/project/west-papua-media-alertsDonations at westpapuamedia.info/donate
