Overview

Mission

Iftas is committed to fostering a safer, more inclusive open social web by empowering volunteer moderators with the tools, resources, and support necessary to navigate the complexities of digital content moderation.

What it reported doing in 2025

Member community - iftas fosters a collaborative environment for trust and safety professionals through the sw-isac (social web information sharing and analysis centre), a dedicated group where infrastructure owners and operators share actionable intelligence on cyber threats, service abuse, and safety hazards. We complement this high-level intelligence sharing with iftas connect, a real-time chat group that serves as a peer-support network for independent moderators and administrators. These forums enable members to coordinate responses to emerging harms, share best practices, and reduce the isolation often felt by volunteer safety teams. By providing these secure spaces for cooperation, iftas strengthens the collective expertise and emotional resilience of the decentralized social web's frontline.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 98% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
