Gender – Broadband report

‘Cyber Violence against Women and Girls‘, a World-wide Wake-up Call — a report by the UN Broadband Commission for Digital Development Working Group on Broadband and Gender was released on Thursday, 24 September.

An editorial opinion about the report, ‘The United Nations has a radical, dangerous vision for the future of the Web’ was published in the Washington Post, with a critical view: ‘We can educate people about gender violence or teach “digital citizenship” in schools, but persuading social networks to police everything their users post is next to impossible.’
