Witnessing
- Discerning
Description
Witnessing involves the deliberate act of observing, documenting, and testifying to events, behaviors, or conditions, often in situations of injustice, conflict, or crisis. Its essential purpose is to provide credible evidence, raise awareness, and catalyze accountability or change. By bearing witness, individuals or organizations can expose hidden problems, support victims, deter abuses, and mobilize action, thereby serving as a practical remedy to denial, impunity, and the perpetuation of harm.
