Was fehlt: Betrachtungen und Recherchen zur Rolle privater #Stiftungen für die digitalpolitische #Zivilgesellschaft.

Stiftungen finanzieren viel und sie haben so auch Einfluss, denn sie finanzieren nicht wahllos alles. Bevor Anträge an sie geschrieben werden, gibt es Gespräche, in denen kommuniziert wird, was Aussicht auf Förderung hat. Das heißt, dass Stiftungen erheblich mit darüber entscheiden, was #NGOs tun.

Weil NGOs ihr Personal nicht verlieren wollen und oft Förderung ..

🎧 #podcast Steve Cutts, CEO of Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP), joins Shamim Sarif and Hanan Kattan in Episode 76 of The Enlightenment Podcast to discuss why MAP refused Israel’s demand to hand over the names of its Palestinian staff — a decision that led to Israel deregistering the organisation in 2025 after more than 40 years of medical and #humanitarian work supporting Palestinians

On #Facebook and #Instagram, #Meta is blocking #NGOs and #HumanRights activists from reaching their audience in #SaudiArabia and the #UAE.

Since March 2026 alone, more than 100 Facebook pages and Instagram accounts have been restricted, despite Meta claiming to have conducted "human rights assessments".

A dozen organizations signed an open letter that demands

• the publication of what those countries requested, and what were the results of the "assessments" ;

• to lift the restrictions of the affected accounts;

• and to tell the account owners why exactly their accounts were restricted, in the first place: which laws were broken, by which content?

The organizations also demand to know more about the collaboration of Meta's local offices in the region with the respective governments.
