Phoenix

Phoenix is an open source, non-commercial platform designed to enable peacebuilders and mediators to conduct ethical and participatory social media listening in order to inform conflict transformation work. It is social media made by and for peacebuilders.

Phoenix was developed by Build Up and datavaluepeople, with the support of the Swiss Federal Department of Foreign Affairs. We aim to keep the platform free for approved users. If you are interested in making a donation to help us keep it free, please contact us on phoenix@howtobuildup.org.


Request access

Starting in December 2024, peacebuilders and mediators will be able to request access to the platform by filling out a form. In the meantime, sign up to our newsletter to receive updates.
