Internet Is for Everyone.

This vision drives everything we do.

We are a global, community-driven nonprofit.

Together with our Foundation, we provide technical and policy expertise, infrastructure, funds, and skills training–key components of an accessible, reliable, and safe Internet.

Rooted in the origins of the Internet, we’re passionate about preserving the foundations on which it was built and developing its full potential. Read about our history.

Our Work
