«Let’s blow the Whistle»

What are the different whistleblowers profiles? What are their motivations? How protected are they? What pressures do they face on a daily basis? What do they become after? These are all questions that will be debated during this conference.
A whistleblower is a person who exposes secretive information or activity that is deemed illegal, unethical, or not correct within a private or public organization. The information of alleged wrongdoing can be classified in many ways: violation of company policy/rules, law, regulation, or threat to public interest/national security, as well as fraud, and corruption. Those who become whistleblowers can choose to bring information or allegations to surface either internally or externally.
