UPTURN

In 2011, David Robinson and Harlan Yu co-founded the organization that is now Upturn. It began as a consulting firm that advised nonprofits and foundations on a variety of technology policy issues, including civil rights, surveillance, anti-censorship, consumer privacy, voting, and government transparency. In 2017, the organization transitioned into a 501(c)(3) nonprofit focused on technology, equity, and justice... We believe technology should advance justice, not amplify racial, economic, and social inequities. Without focused attention, technology can reinforce systemic injustices found everywhere in our society... Upturn advances equity and justice in the design, governance, and use of technology.
