One platform that has contributed a lot to press reporting urban violence here in Brazil (mainly in Rio de Janeiro) is the Fogo Cruzado (https://fogocruzado.org.br/). Collaborative and integrated with the cell phone, it allows information about shootings and shots in Rio de Janeiro to be quickly made available on the Internet, which facilitates the work of the media. (which often does not move to risky areas, for example). With the data from the platform, Jornal Extra was able to point out recently, for example, that despite the number of confrontations with firearms in the city have decreased, the lethality of these confrontations has increased expressively.

Thanks so much for sharing this example. Many of the examples shared by members of this class have been so helpful - and I'm am sure will inspire others.
