Hi Kyle,

I've been developing a tool called StoryMaker for journalists and citizen
journalists.

It's private/secure by design, so ideal for this use case.

There is a 10 lesson curriculum in mobile digital safety, and the app
itself that could all be translated into Spanish. Then perhaps the app
and/or curriculum might be used to educate and assist them in their work?

Resources 20-29 + 210 are the digital safety lessons.

cheers

brian
