Who we are

Africa’s authority on digital resilience.

We are the institution shaping how the continent understands, governs and responds to digital risk for the organisations doing its most vital work.

The organisations defending rights, holding power to account and protecting communities across Africa are also among the most digitally exposed, and the least resourced to change that. We built RT to close that gap, bringing together technical expertise, programmatic rigour and strategic communications into solutions designed for the realities of the African civil society landscape, not adapted from elsewhere.

Where we work

Our vision

To be the leader in digital resilience solutions and innovation for civil society in Africa.

Our mission

To enhance and foster the creation of a safer digital space for African civil society organisations and institutions to thrive in their work.

Our values

RICE

Resilience

We treat obstacles as part of the work, not an exception to it. The organisations we serve operate under sustained pressure, and we hold ourselves to the same standard we build for them: steady, adaptive, and undeterred by setbacks.

Innovation

We are not building to match what already exists elsewhere. African civil society’s digital risks are specific to its context, and so are our solutions. We stay ahead of the threat landscape rather than reacting to it.

Celerity

Digital threats do not wait, and neither do we. We act with speed and precision, so that the organisations we work with are protected before a risk becomes a crisis.

Excellence

We hold every deliverable, whether research, product or partnership, to one standard: the person on the receiving end should feel they are in capable hands. Nothing less leaves Resilience Technologies.
