Persuade. Protect. Prevail – Social psychology for democracy

Military Social Psychology

Scientific psychology is a valuable resource for achieving peace. However, in our uncertain world, we also need evidence-based solutions to combat the warmongering behavior of individuals and countries. One of the benefits of experimental social psychology is that it provides solid concepts and tools for combating violence and building effective defenses against propaganda. Our team is committed to providing you with information and working to strengthen our peace today and tomorrow.

Training Defense Actors

We train civil and military professionals in liberal democracies, equipping them with evidence-based techniques for counter-narrative persuasion, counter-disinformation, and strategic influence. Our programs build the influence skills needed to persuade adversaries, protect democracies, and prevail over enemies.

 Advancing Research

We fund and organize social psychological research and scientific events. By fostering collaboration among experts, we push the boundaries of counter-propaganda and counter-radicalization science, ensuring our strategies remain ahead of evolving threats.

Empowering Decision-Makers

We provide liberal democratic leaders with scientific guidelines, actionable reports, and innovative tools to combat propaganda and terrorism. Our goal: turn research into policy and practice, strengthening societal resilience.

Cognitive warfare needs more than concepts

We need efficient solutions that are evidence-based, dynamicaly assessed and reevaluated if needed.
