Citizens and communities
Use PASO to understand risks, find public sources, ask for correction, share redacted dossiers, and organize lawful non-violent accountability actions without exposing protected people.
What PASO is for
PASO is a public-interest infrastructure for sovereignty, population protection, lawful accountability, evidence mapping and correction. It is not a party structure, not a court, not a vigilante system and not a place to expose vulnerable people. Its public layer turns open evidence into usable records: dossiers, source tables, action templates, correction pathways, risk scores, maps and public JSON.
Journalists
Use it as a source map: official reports, public contracts, court records, audit reports, timelines, correction status and right-of-reply trails.
Lawyers and rights groups
Use the legal action center to draft constitutional requests, UN notices, African Commission communications, ICC pre-screens and parliamentary questions.
Researchers and universities
Use methodology pages, datasets and public JSON to review evidence quality, score logic, source density and public-interest relevance.
How to read scores
| Score | Meaning | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Risk | Likelihood and severity of public harm, capture, coercion, dependency or accountability failure. | Check the evidence anchors and demand audit or remedy. |
| Evidence | How much public, verifiable source material supports the profile. | Improve it with public URLs, records and corrections. |
| Trust index | Sovereignty reliability, not diplomatic preference or production quality. | Lower trust means stronger need for proof, safeguards and public accountability. |
| Capture-risk | Risk that an actor, institution or media node serves dependency, foreign validation, elite extraction, fracture or impunity. | Do not condemn blindly. Request source-linked review and right of reply. |
What must never be published publicly
- Witness names, survivor identities or protected contributors.
- Exact sensitive locations, raw evidence chains or private files.
- Unverified accusations about living people without quote, source, context, reviewer note and right of reply.
- Operational security details that would help retaliation.
