Silberman was hired by Greenpeace in 2011 to launch a "Digital Mobilisation Centre of Excellence"[4] which became known as the Mobilisation Lab and provided guidance to other international organizations including UNICEF, Amnesty International, Doctors Without Borders, and Oxfam.[5]

He has written for the Stanford Social Innovation Review[6], OpenDemocracy[7], and the Chronicle of Philanthropy[8].
