Through field partnerships and locally driven research, we advance digital resilience and leadership across four focus areas.

Digital Harms
Helping vulnerable people and communities thrive online by resisting and recovering from scams, misinformation and other digital attacks.

Civil Society Resilience
Supporting small, at-risk civil society organizations (CSOs) to protect themselves, their operations, and their beneficiaries from digital threats.

Gender-Based Violence
From survivor-centred prevention and support to trailblazing research, we confront the digital gender-based violence (GBV) that silences women and shrinks civic space.

Youth & Digital Leadership
Helping a new generation of leaders build digital resilience, strengthen civic participation, and shape tomorrow’s better, safer online spaces.
Who Are We?
The SecDev Foundation works globally to help at-risk people and civil society organizations surmount old barriers—by using new digital technologies more safely and effectively.
