Field notes
The page describes online support for questions, doubts and practical situations encountered while visiting places of liberty, alongside group meetings a few times each year. Its eligibility criteria include current or past practical detention-monitoring work, and its principles explicitly address trans inclusion, intersecting identities and confidentiality. External meetings, publications and advocacy are described as future work rather than established activities.
