Technology has expanded opportunities for countless women and girls around the world.

Yet adolescent girls face some of the greatest risks of digital violence.

As digital tools and platforms evolve, so do the tactics of those who seek to misuse them. 

During her remarks for the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women UNFPA Executive Director Ms. Diene Keita highlighted the critical work UNFPA is doing to address technology-facilitated gender-based violence.

Childbirth shouldn’t be a death sentence.

Yet for too many mothers and their newborns caught in crises it is.
