Some governments have invoked foreign interference to justify new censorship rules, while others have imposed localized shutdowns of Internet services, plunging their populations into digital obscurity. In Russia, for instance, over 190,000 websites have been blocked since the start of the war with Ukraine in 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There&#8217;s no such thing as fatality, whether it&#8217;s online censorship or massive Internet blackouts, solutions do exist. Nothing2Hide implements them with its partners, NGOs, journalists, militants and activists. We&#8217;d like to present these projects with the first interested parties. During a half-day conference, our partners in Ukraine, Central Asia and Democratic Republic of the Congo will tell you how they have used digital tools to continue their fight for freedom of information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Program<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Ukraine, Russia: providing information during the war<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Democratic
