Historical Lineage

Recognised civilian-protection discipline, co-developed with the UN training arm. TLTE references; never deploys.

International standard for OSINT-as-evidence. TLTE adopts chain-of-custody, hash + timestamp + source-archive on every Unmai artefact.

Survivor-centred conduct standard. TLTE never takes survivor testimony — but references the Code so partners can audit our deference posture.

Peer-reviewed academic anchor for civilian-led protection as a distinct, evidenced discipline.

Peer-cited evidence of digital transnational repression affecting diaspora communities. TLTE's threat-model anchor.

Gendered dimensions of transnational digital repression. Co-anchor for the Cyber Layer.

Tier-A government baseline for civil-society cyber defence. TLTE's own posture aligns to this.

TLTE's published cyber baseline as a UK CIC.

Recognised global civil-society digital-safety partner. TLTE routes at-risk individuals here; never gives op-sec on the public site.

The Tamil precedent for evidence-layer-not-armed-actor. Rajani Thiranagama's 1989 assassination is the historical anchor for why this work matters.

Civil-society tribunal precedent as a stage that precedes — and strengthens the case for — international accountability.

Vendor-published threat-notification programme. TLTE routes at-risk users to enrol; never advises on tooling itself.

Contemporaneous Tamil-side human-rights documentation through the conflict period, published at significant personal cost to the authors. UTHR(J) documented violations by the Sri Lankan state, by the IPKF (1987–1990), and by armed Tamil organisations — a triple-independence posture that the case file treats as the historical reference for non-state, non-armed, contemporaneous civic documentation. Cited extensively by OHCHR OISL, ICG, Amnesty, and the academic literature.

Standing Tamil-civilian human-rights record covering IPKF abuses, intra-Tamil killings, LTTE suppression of dissent, EPDP and Karuna-faction collaboration with Sri Lankan security forces. Canonical Tier-A Tamil-civilian source for the period. Rajani Thiranagama was assassinated 21 Sep 1989 — publicly recorded; UTHR(J) honours her legacy.
