Grant Description

The goal of the Greater Internet Freedom (GIF) program is to advance Internet Freedom in the countries in which it works by ensuring that digital security capacities, data awareness, and activism on behalf of an open, interoperable, reliable, and secure Internet are available, adaptive and integrated into the operation of independent media and civil society.

To achieve this goal, GIF has two objectives - to enhance digital security for civil society and media and to increase citizen engagement in internet governance.
