S2E11 Technology facilitated gender-based violence
Manage episode 367835331 series 3330749
From trolling to stalking to the sharing of intimate images, technology has facilitated a wide range of threats against women. But what implications does online violence have in the real-world? And how do we measure the impacts and gather data for research?
In this episode we explore how the internet has impacted the safety and wellbeing of women, affecting them both psychologically and physically. We hear real-world examples of women who’ve seen these impacts firsthand, including one woman who disengaged from the internet for 13 years as a result of her experiences. And we discuss the work that needs to be done to create safe spaces for women online.
Our guest is:
Maya Indira Ganesh of the University of Cambridge, and senior research fellow at the Leverhulme Centre for the Future of Intelligence.
Your hosts are:
Elizabeth Dartnall, Executive Director, SVRI
Ayesha Mago, Global Advocacy Director, SVRI
