Berlin, Germany (temporary registration at Impact Hub Berlin)
What it is
activist is a web platform for people and organizations to find groups and events and coordinate political action for social and ecological change. Organizations can create Learn events for seminars, meetings, and panel discussions, or Action events for protests, direct action, and volunteering. Event pages support live updates, reusable templates, printable QR-code flyers or posters, and organizer notes on risks or logistics. Organization profiles can include internal groups with pages for resources, FAQs, and onboarding. Groups, organizations, and events can also gather links in resource hubs. Those links are publicly visible for now, and the platform does not store files. The maker describes activist as free, open-source, privacy-focused, and community-governed; its stated plan is free. Users can create accounts without giving personal information such as an email address. The service uses Iceland-based FlokiNET hosting and describes encryption, access controls, and regular security assessments. Documentation links to a request-access form, and the roadmap describes the product as being at the MVP development and launch stage.
