2023 Asian Conference of Women’s Shelters – Tackling Online and Technology-Facilitated Gender-based Violence in Asia

Asian Network of Women’s Shelters and the Garden of Hope Foundation are hosting the 2023 Asian Conference of Women’s Shelters, with a focus on Tackling Online and Technology-Facilitated Gender-Based Violence in Asia from September 12 to 13 with the in-person location in Taipei and virtual venue on Zoom!

It will offer a global platform for individuals working to combat gender-based violence (GBV) in digital contexts from around the world. Participants will have the opportunity to gain insights on effective strategies to eliminate cyber GBV and ensure that service providers throughout Asia are equipped to address this issue.

The conference will cover a range of topics, including enhancing access to specialized survivor-centered support, advocating for policies that offer swift remedies to survivors, and strengthening collaboration between states, the technology sector, civil society, and women’s rights organizations. By joining forces, we can effectively respond to and prevent GBV, thereby creating a safer and more inclusive digital environment.
