Mikalai Dziadok is an activist of the anarchist movement in Belarus, a writer, journalist, and blogger who has spent a total of about 10 years in prison and was twice recognized as a political prisoner. Together with 50 other prisoners, Mikalai was released from prison and forcibly expelled from the country without documents. He is now trying to rebuild his life in a new country and continue the activities he was engaged in before imprisonment.

BGmedia is an independent regional media outlet that reports daily on the issues facing Brest and the Brest region, asking hard-hitting questions to those in power. The publication is raising funds to pay key staff members whose work helps bring the truth to tens of thousands of Belarusians, despite repression and pressure.

The levy is opened to help the BELPOL organization grow, expand its capacity, and support its participants and partners.

After persecution and being blocked in Belarus, the “Vitebsky Courier news” team continues to fight for the truth about their hometown. The project is now on the brink of closure – this fundraiser will help keep the newsroom running and launch new formats.
