Whistleblowing-verrat oder verantwortliches Handeln? | Antonia Peißker | TEDxYouth@SchlossHansenberg

Whistleblowing: the uncovering of dark secrets or unfaithful betrayal? While many see whistleblowers like Edward Snowden as heroic fighters against the power of powerful corporations, the legal status of whistleblowers paints a different picture. How is whistleblowing actually defined? And how often do we encounter this phenomenon? Antonia Peißker explains the context and challenges surrounding whistleblowing. Antonia Peißker is completing a voluntary social year with the Whistleblower Network e.V., a non-profit group dedicated to protecting and empowering whistleblowers. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
