From Propagandist to Criminal 
From documenting the scale of war damage in Gaza, to tracking environmental crime in Brazil, remote sensing technology has become an essential tool for journalists around the world. In our latest Backlight episode we speak to two reporters from our Forest Fraud investigation who used remote sensing analysis to uncover the scale of deforestation in the Philippines.
Journalists Lu Min Lwin and Lucelle Bonzo talk us through the methods behind the investigation, and share resources for journalists looking to incorporate remote sensing in their own work. We dive into how journalists can merge innovative methods with community reporting to demand government accountability.
