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. Read it here: digitallibrary.un.org/record… #16days

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. #16Days

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: eldiario.es/piedrasdepapel/a… #16days

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. Read about it here ⬇️ unwomen.org/en/articles/faqs… @UN_Women #16Days

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

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. #16Days #25N #NoExcuse

🤖 AI mirrors society's biases, including gender inequality. - Only 30% of AI workers are women. - 44% of AI systems show gender bias, impacting decisions in jobs, health, and beyond. Read more about equitable AI governance here 👇 unwomen.org/en/news-stories/…

🌍 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.

📢 Call for Papers for the @dec_gr Workshop!

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.

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
