- In brief .
This repository reflects UN Women’s work addressing a critical and growing form of violence that disproportionately affects women and girls worldwide. Technology-facilitated violence against women and girls (TF VAWG) includes any act committed or amplified through digital means, leading to physical, sexual, psychological, economic, or social harm. Rooted in power imbalances, patriarchy, and misogyny, TF VAWG not only exacerbates existing forms of violence like harassment and intimate partner violence but has also led to the emergence of new forms of abuse, especially in the rapidly digitalizing world.
UN Women leads, convenes, and shapes the development of resources in this repository, focusing on closing gaps in knowledge, data, and implementation that hinder effective prevention and response. This collection of materials supports efforts to bridge research gaps, strengthen normative frameworks, adapt essential services to support survivors, and engage men and boys in transforming harmful social norms.
