#16Days#EndTFGBV#FeministInternet#WRONetwork
#TFGBV silences women, shrinks civic and political space, and inflicts psychological and social
harm, undermining equality and participation.
For #UPR51, our recommendations are to #Rwanda but remain applicable to many countries (and platforms) across the world.
These include:
1. Adopt and enforce survivor-centered TFGBV protections aligned with Convention on the
Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (#CEDAW).
2. Require social media and digital platforms to strengthen reporting, moderation, and
accountability mechanisms.
The latter recommendation supports our call for platforms to ensure that all women should #BeSafeByDesign by integrating the necessary measures to ensure that women enjoy the full benefits of the #digitalsociety.
