SHARE Foundation 

As a non-profit organisation, SHARE Foundation was established in 2012 to advance human rights and freedoms online and promote positive values of an open and decentralised internet, as well as free access to information, knowledge and technology. SHARE Foundation’s primary areas of activities are freedom of expression online, data privacy, digital security and open access to knowledge.

Their multidisciplinary team consists of legal and IT experts, artists and journalists. The Foundation has so far organised dozens of conferences, gatherings and workshops in Serbia and abroad, attended by leading activists and experts in digital rights and freedoms. As a contributing member of civil society, SHARE Foundation participates in public debates on relevant laws that might affect citizens’ online rights in Serbia. The Foundation has also produced numerous publications and launched dozens of websites which serve as educational resources for citizens, human rights defenders and online media. The activities of SHARE Foundation in promoting digital rights have been recognised by the Commissioner for Information of Public Importance and Personal Data Protection of Serbia, who in January 2017 awarded the Foundation a certificate of gratitude for an outstanding contribution to promote the right to personal data protection. Together with Balkan Investigative Reporting Network (BIRN), SHARE co-founded the SEE Digital Rights Network that has more than 20 member organisations from across the region – Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Greece, Kosovo, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Slovenia and Serbia – and is the first network of its kind that focuses on the digital environment and challenges to digital rights in Southeast Europe.

Among other resources on digital rights, SHARE provides a digital toolkit on cyber-security that on the one hand provides support for people affected by cyber-security issues, and on the other hand offers educational content and information about preventative measures.
