The speakers include professor Robert Tibbo (Newcastle University, lawyer for refugee rights and Mr Edward Snowden), professor Kate Kenny (National University Galway University), and professor David Lewis (Head of the Whistleblowing Research Unit at Middlesex University and convenor of the International Whistleblowing Research Network).
