Earlier in the season, we had a chance to go outside the US borders and get a different view of whistleblowing. In this episode, we stretch a bit farther and chat with Delphine Halgand, who is currently the Executive Director at The Signals Network, which is a global organization that works to support whistleblowers. As if that wasn’t impressive enough, her resume includes other roles such as Director of Reporters without Borders -fighting for free press, freedom of information, and journalistic integrity and accountability, as well as Press Attache for the French Embassy in Washington DC. Even after all of that, she still holds value in helping others regardless of country or status, in having a voice to make this world a better place through information and knowledge.
Merci, Delphine, you truly embody the statue that your ancestors built as a gift of diplomacy and friendship at Ellis island so long ago.
