The Whistleblower House firmly believes that whistleblowing is a necessary bulwark in the architecture of modern democracies as it:
alerts the public to abuses of power;
shines a light on criminality for law enforcement to follow up; and
disrupts the networks of collusion within institutions.
The Whistleblower House seeks to support people who know about or witness wrongdoing so that they can more safely become whistleblowers. When whistleblowing is a safer endeavour, impunity withers away, and accountability becomes a consequence.
The Whistleblower House is a not for profit, public benefit organisation (registered NPC (2021/717060/08)) that provides support services to whistleblowers.
