The IO Foundation, or TIOF in short, is a nonprofit registered in Estonia with operational offices in Malaysia and the Philippines.

Our members are distributed across the globe and come from different walks of life. They all share a common concern: Human Rights are at risk in the digital space if no proper action is taken to protect them.

The organization’s primary goal is to advocate for the proclamation of a Universal Declaration of Human Rights with the clear objective of preserving Human Rights as societies become more and more digital. The warning signs have been observed by our members for years and verified as events unfolded. It’s way too often that user’s data is inappropriately used, if not abused.

To this end, we develop programs that help raise awareness among communities on the importance of their Digital Rights as well as actions to provide tools that will assist them.

We aim to embark both civil society and bodies of governance in this fundamental change that we seek to achieve.
