Online abuse is spreading at an alarming speed

There is #NoExcuse for online abuse. Online and digital spaces should empower women and girls. Yet every day, for millions of women and girls, the digital world has become a minefield of harassment, abuse, and control. What can start small, on screens – a message, a comment, or a post – can quickly spiral into a torrent of threats and violence in real life. Private photos are stolen without consent. Lies spread in a matter of seconds. Locations are tracked. AI is weaponized to create deepfakes designed to shame and silence women. This 16 Days of Activism (25 November – 10 December) join us as we rally for a world where technology is a force for equality – not harm.
