“What begins online doesn’t stay online. Digital abuse spills into real life, spreading fear, silencing voices, and - in the worst cases - leading to physical violence and femicide”, Sima Bahous
Today marks the start of the 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence, with a critical focus on the rising threat of digital violence against women worldwide. This modern form of oppression includes coordinated online harassment, doxxing, deepfake manipulation, and other technological tactics systematically used to silence women. Let’s unite in ending digital violence against women.
