We are Tech4Peace. We are working on peace with a focus on digital rights, digital security, and the fight against dis- and misinformation. We started our journey by combating dis- and misinformation in Iraq, which resulted in a fact-checking platform with a high reach in the MENA region and beyond.

Our experience working on our mission in the unstable, and sometimes unsafe, context of a post-conflict country has made us innovative, hands-on, and solution oriented. We developed our own fact-checking app, an online learning platform, and launched a helpline to improve the digital security of activists, journalists, women, and many others.

We are a grassroots and trusted organization with a high number of engaged volunteers who are highly motivated to contribute to peace in their society. We like to share our knowledge and expertise, so we provide training on topics such as digital rights, digital security, social media peacebuilding, leadership, and fact-checking.

We are saving lives, increasing social cohesion, improving digital security, enhancing access to reliable information, and raising awareness of digital rights, digital security, and mis- and disinformation. We focus our services on unstable regions, mostly in the Middle East and North-Africa. However, we believe that our knowledge and expertise are also relevant for many other contexts.
