Reporting resources around the world
Find country-specific information and help us expand this directory.
Choosing where to share a concern
People everywhere may have information that could prevent harm to communities, peace or the living world. The safest useful route depends on the country, the subject and the person’s circumstances. This directory is a starting point for finding advice, not a guarantee of protection.
Governing for Life is a public discussion site, not a secure disclosure service. Do not post sensitive evidence or identifying details here, or assume ordinary email provides anonymity. Before a sensitive disclosure, consult a qualified adviser and check the receiving organisation’s current remit, privacy arrangements and reporting process. Deadlines and protections vary.
These external links open in a new tab. Resources checked on 4 October 2026. Inclusion is not an endorsement of every position taken by an organisation.

Help us include your country
This directory does not yet cover every country. If a relevant resource is missing, suggest a country reporting resource to Michael or contribute a resource suggestion to the discussion. Give the country, organisation’s name, official website, the issues it handles, languages available and a public source explaining its role. Share resource information, not your sensitive case details. Suggestions will be checked before being added; we will not invent a reporting route where one cannot be verified.
