Programme
Eliot Higgins is the founder and CEO of Bellingcat. Launched in 2014 Bellingcat has played a major role in the growth of online open source investigation, making key findings in the shooting down of MH17 in 2014, and conflict in Syria, and the poisoning of Sergei Skripal in the UK. Bellingcat has recently opened a new headquarters in The Hague, and is currently focused on a major new project documenting the conflict in Yemen, and working with Dutch organisations to spread the use of online open source investigation at a local level.
