Lakta is based at the Maison d’Entraide et de Ressources (M.E.R.). We have set up a studio there — a quiet, welcoming space where anyone can come to speak, record and tell their story, in their own words.

​

Each person decides how, when and where they want to share their testimony.

Once the content has been recorded and consent has been confirmed, we store it on a secure cloud, edit it and share it through our social media channels and newsletter.

​

We keep the raw recordings for future projects, always with the consent of the people concerned.

​

Our testimonies are dated and archived, and can be used for advocacy purposes by organisations that wish to draw on them, while ensuring the anonymity of the people involved.

​

Every recording, every name and every image entrusted to Lakta is handled with the care. We comply with the GDPR and follow strict internal protocols: nothing is shared, published or used without explicit and revocable consent.

​

People remain in control of their own stories. At any time, they can ask for their content to be edited, anonymised or deleted, without having to provide a reason.

​

We are particularly attentive to the risks that people may face. A face, a name or a location can have real consequences for someone’s safety, or for the safety of loved ones who may still be in danger.

​

That is why we work with an NGO specialising in digital security, to strengthen our protocols and use tools that match the level of trust placed in us.
