Did you know the @UN GA has committed to intensifying actions to eliminate violence against women, including digital violence. The resolution calls for stronger laws, better support services, prevention programmes, data & research.

The first step to state action is legislation. Yet fewer than 40% of countries have laws protecting women from cyber-harassment or cyberstalking. That leaves 1.8 billion women and girls living in countries without robust safeguards from violence and discrimination.

Violence against women used to be a valence issue, but recently it has become more contested. Yet, data gathered from @dec_gr finds no real polarization in public opinion. As Prof. @Evaanduiza explains here: https://t.co/3RMkTEWMXH

Did you know that up to 95% of all deepfakes online are non-consensual sexual images, and around 99% depict women?

The rapid growth of #AI has serious implications for violence, mainly against women and girls.

Digital violence has many faces and names. It is a continuum that can escalate offline.
#16Days

[Laura Gutierrez @_LauraGZ]

Digital violence is real violence.

1 in 3 women experience violence in their lifetime.
16–58% face digital violence.

Violence often begins with control, harassment, and online intimidation. It remains one of the most pervasive threats to women’s lives.

🌍 Did you know?
- In 49 countries, there’s no law vs.
domestic violence.
- In 45, sexual harassment isn’t addressed by legislation.
- In 112, marital rape is not criminalized.
Legal gaps leave millions unprotected. Although not a solution by itself, laws are a first step action.

Interesting fact:
#BlackFriday produces about 429,000 metric tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions from product deliveries alone! 🚚
Not counting the pollution caused by the production, packaging, and returned items that will likely end up in landfills.

[Laura Gutierrez @_LauraGZ]

On #25N, we should remember that every 10 min a woman loses her life to domestic violence (via @UN_Women).
To eliminate violence against women, research calls for:
📜 Robust legislation
🛡️ Prevention policies
💪 Investment in women & grassroots level
📊 Better data collection
