Open Briefing builds resistance and resilience among the people and movements challenging unaccountable power.

As a mission-driven nonprofit, we join forces with grassroots activists, community groups, and social movements at risk. Working together, we strengthen their physical safety, digital resilience, and collective wellbeing.

Last year alone, our team provided over 6,000 hours of holistic security support to activists and organisations under threat in 100 countries.

As a social impact consultancy, we also help high-profile nonprofits and foundations navigate risk and support the people and partnerships that make change possible.
