-<WRAP centerl download round> +The “Whistleblow Village” is a hub for information, action, invention and coordination about the persecution of whistleblowers and publishers everywhere. It has a strong focus on ending WikiLeaks and Assange's political persecution.  
-=====HOW TO PARTICIPATE=====+ 
 +It is a place to discuss and explore the consequences of such a “war on journalism”; it is a place to celebrate the importance of freedom to publish and access information; and a place for exploring the ethical use of technology for publishing and countering surveillance, etc. 
 + 
 +Throughout RC3 there will be a number of panels, group discussions, various collective efforts and initiatives, workshops, etc. Decentralized infrastructure will be shared ( including this wiki, pads, Big Blue Button rooms, a PeerTube instance, a radio stream, and more) Our only limit is the pixelated sky!
