An Evening with Edward Snowden

Overview

Some people have called him a hero. Others think of him as a criminal and a traitor. Still, regardless of your personal feelings about NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden, no one could deny that he'd be an interesting person to listen to.

As it just so happens, that's exactly what this event is all about. For one night only at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre, the man who blew the lid off the biggest surveillance program in history will appear live via video to talk about what turned him from an anonymous computer analyst to one of the most wanted men in the world. We're sure he'd love to appear in the flesh, but...y'know.

Presented by Monash Uni and Amnesty International, the event will begin at 7pm and run for approximately an hour and a half, and will include a Q&A with the audience.
