Three illustrated playing cards in a small stack, each with the words “Digital violence at the top”. The top-most card reads “Image-based abuse: the use of imagery, often sexual in nature, to objectify, exploit, humiliate or harass. Examples include non-consensual sharing of intimate imagery (aka “revenge porn”)and child sexual abuse material (showing minors in sexually explicit situations).” The white UNFPA logo is at the bottom.

Online harassment is violence. It is also a human rights violation. Digital violence can take many forms and it disproportionately affects women & girls. More from @UNFPA during the #16Days to end gender-based violence. unf.pa/16Days

The Beijing Platform for Action asserts that the human rights of women and girls are inalienable, integral and indivisible. Governments have a responsibility to not only refrain from violating women’s human rights, but to actively promote these rights. #16Days #RecommitToBeijing

This year’s #16DaysOfActivism highlights the global blueprint for women’s rights: The Beijing Platform for Action. Governments signed onto this vision almost 30 years ago. Today we are mobilizing feminists to urge their political leaders in recommitting to this ambitious agenda.

Self and collective care is important because it helps us to resist systemic oppression and the idea that we are only worthy when we are being productive / beneficial to capitalism and to the patriarchy. #EndVAWG #SelfCare #CollectiveCare #CareSunday
