Supporting Safer Digital Spaces — Introducing CIGI’s Special Report
Technology-facilitated violence (TFV) is recognized as one of the most widespread forms of interpersonal violence that impacts women and LGBTQ+ individuals around the globe. This type of violence includes behaviour that is considered online gender-based violence, such as cyberstalking, online harassment and the non-consensual sharing of intimate images of victims, as well as technology-facilitated behaviour, such as threatening text messages or voyeurism.
Technology-facilitated gender-based violence (TFGBV) and TFV against LGBTQ+ people is on the rise internationally, but there is limited data on the true extent of it.
Supporting a Safer Internet is a multi-year research project created to address this gap.
As part of the project, an international survey of more than 18,000 people of all genders in 18 countries was conducted, with a focus on the experiences of people from the Global South. The data gathered from this survey aims to help civil society organizations, the private sector and governments better design responses to TFV through online platform regulation, education programs, legal recourse and more.
CIGI Senior Fellow Suzie Dunn encourages viewers to read the full report, Supporting Safer Digital Spaces, and highlights data from this groundbreaking survey as well as a selection of the report’s 87 recommendations.
