Why PubHubs for your organization?
More and more societal organizations are forced to use commercial platforms like WhatsApp or Facebook for their online communication. These platforms offer little room for control, privacy, or moderation based on your own values. PubHubs provides an alternative: a secure, moderatable, and privacy-friendly digital environment under your own control, developed for organizations with a public mission.
What does PubHubs offer your organization?
- Your own online Hub: A digital space with subgroups (“Rooms”) for public or private communication.
- Identity management: Verification based on attributes (such as name, age, or membership), tailored to context and necessity.
- Secure communication: Chat, audio, video, file sharing, and more, without data sharing with third parties.
- Local control: You determine the setup, moderation, and access requirements.
- Open source, closed network: Free use of the software, but network access is exclusive to organizations that endorse public values.
Who is PubHubs suitable for?
- Schools and universities
- Libraries and cultural institutions
- Local governments and community initiatives
- Hospitals, care groups, and patient associations
- Media and public broadcasters
- Any organization responsible for its community
Collaboration within and between Hubs
PubHubs supports collaboration within your organization and between organizations. A library and a school can set up a shared Room for a joint project, with shared moderation and access control. This makes PubHubs suitable for any form of collective digital activity requiring trust, safety, and shared ownership.
Join us
As an organization, you can join the PubHubs network by signing a collaboration agreement outlining responsibilities and technical conditions. You will then gain access to the infrastructure and support for setting up your own Hub.
