Open source

protection for all

Shield the Protest was created first and foremost for survival.

That's why the design was made fully open source.

Material lists, cutting guides, and instructions were shared globally,
ensuring anyone could build their own shield.

Protecting the right to protest must know no barriers or borders.

This is not the final answer. Real safety lies in justice, not just defense. While we fight for policy reform and better policing, Shield the Protest gives demonstrators a way to stay visible and stay safe.

Until the laws change, we protect each other.
