Help Colombia's independent press stay safe
Donation protected
La Direkta is an independent alternative media outlet in Colombia. We've been covering marches and protests since 2008.
Since April 28th, Colombia is seeing a new wave protests and we have been one of the few covering what is happening on the frontlines in Colombia's biggest cities.
As the protests have intensified and security forces have started shooting at protesters and have started to act violently towards the press, we urgently need to buy safety equipment for our teams in Cali, Medellín and Bogotá.
We need:
• Gas masks
• Helmets
• Protective goggles
• Press vests
With your support we will be able to continue our work as an alternative medium, covering the protests more safely from the perilous front lines of the protest.
