European Women’s Lobby (EWL) launched the new EWL Report on Cyber Violence , which gives an overview of the forms of CVAWG, the policy framework and a set of policy recommendations to tackle the issue.

In the era of digitalisation, the incidence of Cyber Violence is surging. The new technologies, particularly social media, has transformed the way we engage and communicate online. As our identity expresses itself also online, cyber violence against women appears as a continuum of violence against women. The same gender stereotypes and misogyny which cause the already known forms of violence against women, manifest online with new forms and similar effects.

Translations into 25 languages and an Easy-To-Read version of the Executive Summary will be available soon.
