where collaboration transforms ideas into action

ACTS champions a ‘whole of society’ approach to advance digital safety, recognizing that combatting tech-based harms demands a united and proactive effort. Embracing a comprehensive perspective, we aim to cultivate a deep understanding and take decisive action against these challenges. This approach underscores the importance of shaping attitudes, promoting values of equality and respect, fortifying protection and grievance mechanisms, implementing robust policies, and conducting rigorous analysis of online harms. In alignment with this ethos, we have established six specialized working groups, each dedicated to pivotal aspects of our mission to forge a secure digital environment for all.

In alignment with this visionary ideology, we have forged ahead, establishing six dedicated working groups, which are designed to tackle specific challenges within the online safety landscape, offering targeted opportunities for impactful collaboration.

At the Alliance for Cyber Trust and Safety (ACTS), we champion a 'whole of society' approach to champion digital safety. We understand that combatting tech-based harms demands a united front—a collective effort that spans across all sectors of society. By embracing this expansive perspective, we endeavour to cultivate a comprehensive understanding and take decisive action against these formidable challenges. This approach underscores the critical importance of nurturing the right mindsets, embedding values of equality and respect, fortifying protection measures, establishing robust grievance redressal mechanisms, enacting supportive policies, and conducting rigorous analyses of online harms.

In alignment with this visionary ideology, we have forged ahead, establishing six dedicated working groups, which are designed to tackle specific challenges within the online safety landscape, offering targeted opportunities for impactful collaboration.
