Collective Defenders
Collective Defenders are alliances of nations (or other social groups) which feel that the best way to defend themselves from attack by unscrupulous foreign (or domestic) rivals is by agreeing to pool their resources to build a common defense. They further agree to come to one another's aid in the event of an actual attack.

Ethical Advocates
Ethical Advocates fight back against the tendency of many advocacy groups to pursue victory to the point where they are not leaving space in society for those with opposing views. They help us understand when our obligations to the larger society should take precedence over efforts to advance our individual and group interests.

Corruption Fighters

Constructive Media
Constructive Media work to defend and strengthen the ability and inclination of media to provide the public with accurate and understandable information about the problems facing society. Their goal is to encourage the media to better support democracy by promoting content that is constructive, rather than inflammatory and inaccurate.

Integrators
Integrators focus on reaching out to those who feel alienated from and left behind by the larger society — people who have lost so much hope that they are falling victim to the various diseases of despair. Especially worrying are those who have crossed the line into destructive nihilism where they are so resentful of the larger society that they want to do all they can attack and destroy it

Geopolitical Defenders
Geopolitical Defenders work to defend democracy from geopolitical rivals who seek to undermine and destabilize Western democracies and who, if the opportunity arises, may engage in covert and sometimes overt acts of aggression.
