I'm Ivana.

I’m an independent journalist based in Australia, reporting primarily on resistance movements, human rights and tech. Since 2026, I've been working with independent writers and filmmakers through the Red Action Media collective.

While I was studying journalism, I was a news producer and co-host at 4ZZZ Radio. I'm now in my final year of a law degree with a minor in computer science and my main research interests are in surveillance, privacy and digital freedom.

If you’d like to reach out, you can email me at ivdaskalovic@proton.me or find me on Mastodon at ivana@infosec.exchange
