Hello, this is the introduction of the Blog page.
The 88 Project is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization registered in the state of Illinois, United States. It was founded in November 2012 by Huong Nguyen, then a Ph.D. student at Indiana University; Ella Gancarz, a Polish independent film-maker based in London; and Kaylee Dolen, then a student at Indiana University and active member of Amnesty International. We noticed a lack of information in English on many cases of political prisoners in Vietnam, and decided to found the project with the mission to support and encourage freedom of expression in Vietnam.
