For many women, the Internet is not a safe space. Although social media platforms in particular have become a critical space for women to express themselves and make their voices heard, they have also become spaces where women are easily targeted for expressing their views. Online violence and abuse denies women the right to express themselves equally, freely, and without fear.

Join us along with Amnesty International for this panel in which we will explore this issue and dive into opportunities for action. Dinner will be provided!
