Are there foundations similar to the Electronic Frontier Foundation, but with more international focus?

Electronic Frontier Foundation
eff.org

I'm a member of the EFF, and its activities are great, but understandably have slightly more focus on USA-related matters. I say "but" just because I don't live in the USA.

Are there similar foundations that operate and focus/prioritize more on an international level? I don't manage to find any, but probably I'm doing the wrong kind of search.

Hey @MaxPower@feddit.de @Blizzard@lemmy.zip @anteaters@feddit.de @cwagner@lemmy.cwagner.me @DavidGarcia@feddit.nl @tal@kbin.social @perviouslyiner@lemm.ee @Strayce@lemmy.sdf.org @JamesWords@lemmy.nz @library_napper@monyet.cc @grue@lemmy.ml @p0ppe@lemmy.world @DJKayDawg@lemmy.world @neuromancer@lemmy.world @RobotToaster@infosec.pub @t0lo@lemmy.world @finder@sopuli.xyz

THANK YOU so much for all the very useful links. I understand what @cwagner is saying, it makes sense. I'll look at some organizations in Europe and Northern Europe.

What I hope is that these organization maintain an active dialogue. It's true that laws and political situations change a lot from country to country, but it's always helpful to exchange ideas and have support, even if just moral support, from other countries.

I hope people will keep on posting relevant links and foundations.

Donating to an organisation in your own country (or within a region like the EU) might be a lot more financially efficient - both because your local banking system makes it easier, and because nobody is charging for currency conversions.
