Introduction

Whistleblowing and protection of journalistic sources are crucial aspects of maintaining transparency and accountability in society. Whistleblowers play a key role in exposing wrongdoings and corruption, while journalists rely on confidential sources to uncover vital information for the public interest. However, both whistleblowers and journalists face various challenges and risks in their efforts to disclose sensitive information and protect their sources.

The purpose of this thesis is to explore the problems faced by whistleblowers and the protection of journalistic sources, and to propose potential solutions to enhance their safety and effectiveness. By examining the legal, ethical, and practical issues surrounding whistleblowing and source protection, this study aims to contribute to the development of better mechanisms to support and safeguard those who speak out against misconduct and those who provide information to the media.
