In today’s digital-first world, we are seeing a worrying increase in new technologies being used to cause harm, and particularly to cause sexual harm, posing serious threats to the safety and well-being of people everywhere, women, and girls. This webinar will introduce you to what technology-facilitated sexual abuse is — from online sexual insults to AI-generated sexual images, and how the digital revolution has exacerbated gender based and sexual abuse.

We have created an impactful 30-minute webinar designed to help you begin to understand online and technology-facilitated sexual abuse and how to respond to it. Through expert insights, an interactive quiz, and engaging content, you’ll learn how to identify, respond, and support.

No one should feel fearful when online. Digital spaces should be safe spaces for everyone.

Learning Outcomes:

• Increase understanding of the different types of sexual abuse and how technology can be used to facilitate this.
• Increase understanding of the impact of technology-facilitated sexual abuse and how to recognise it and respond to it.
• Increase understanding of how technology can be used for good.
• Understand what support is available.
