Data and tools to confront Violence Against Politicians (VAP) and build resilience

At the Better Politics Foundation, we believe that safe, inclusive political participation is the cornerstone of a healthy democracy.

 

Our Resource Hub brings together the latest research, practical guides and customizable toolkits to help public officials and their teams anticipate, prevent and respond to threats, whether they take the form of online harassment, coordinated disinformation campaigns, or real-world intimidation and violence.

​

Together, we can ensure that public service remains both accessible and secure for all who choose to lead.
