Our core values

Be global

The internet crosses physical borders and those marked by language, class, race, gender, and more — so should our work.

Practice empathy

When ideas are translated between cultures, the deeper meaning can sometimes get lost. We embrace the individuality inherent in humanity.

Respect context

Tools and programs are most effective when they’re built by the communities who use them.

Encourage inclusion

Diverse perspectives foster innovation and create a more equitable and dynamic environment.

Embrace impact

We are dependable individuals who stand behind our mission. We measure, analyze, and share the tangible outcomes of our work.

Demonstrate commitment

We trust each other to find balance in our lives and work and to contribute effectively to the collective push toward positive, systemic change.

Value partnership

We work alongside our community partners to codesign safer and more equitable online ecosystems.

Maintain independence

We provide clear information about our funding sources and remain committed to independence, accuracy, and transparency.
