Advisory groups help us improve the health of the public conversation.
The Twitter Trust and Safety Council is a group of independent expert organizations from around the world. Together, they advocate for safety and advise us as we develop our products, programs, and rules. At the end of 2019, we expanded the Council to include even more global experts and diverse perspectives.
The Council is made up of several advisory groups, each dedicated to issues critical to the health of the public conversation. Areas of focus include Online Safety and Harassment, Human and Digital Rights, Suicide Prevention and Mental Health, Child Sexual Exploitation, and Dehumanization.
Membership is voluntary and doesn't imply endorsement of any decisions we make. Members also don’t speak on Twitter’s behalf. A small number of organizations on the Council requested not to be named.
Online Safety and Harassment
The Online Safety and Harassment Prevention group engages Twitter on priority challenges and policy issues including but not limited to online harassment and abuse.
