About Tella

What's Tella - Document & protect {#whats-tella---document--protect}

In challenging environments, with limited or no internet connectivity or in the face of repression, Tella makes it easier and safer to document human rights violations and collect data.

Why Tella {#why-tella}

If you are an activist, journalist, human rights defender, or anyone who engages in documentation of injustice, you can use Tella to:

• Protect yourself from physical and digital repression while collecting and storing sensitive information.

• Protect the data you collect from censorship, tampering, interception, and destruction.

• Easily produce high quality documentation that can be used for research, advocacy, or transitional justice.
