Risks of NGO-Journalist Collaboration & Security Tools of Journalists 24 Jan 2012 | 15:28
Like aid workers, journalists often operate in the midst of conflict and are targeted because of their profession. The killings of a local journalist in Pakistan (claimed by the Taliban) and of a local reporter in Nigeria last week, indicate the dangers faced by journalist on a daily basis. While the risk profile of journalists differs significantly from that of aid workers, there are some similarities in risks, trends and developments related to security that are worth highlighting. This alert identifies some of the tools that are used by journalists to improve their safety and security, as well as looking into the risks that may result from NGO/media collaboration.

Nigeria: Sectarian violence and the threat of civil war 13 Jan 2012 | 11:32
A sustained campaign of violence attributed to, and claimed by, Islamist sect Boko Haram in which many Christians have been killed, has triggered retaliatory attacks against Muslims in the south, and given rise to fears of civil war in Nigeria.
The terrorist threat has this week been combined with civil unrest over the abolition of fuel subsidies, leading to violent street protests in some areas, and escalating insecurity.
