#16daysofactivism : “Digital Violence is a barrier to gender equality.” Joyceline Belebemma, UNFPA UNV for Advocacy and Outreach in Douala. Listen to Joyceline share her thoughts on Technology-Facilitated #GBV. This year UNFPA joins the rest of the world to run the 16 Days of Activism Campaign under the theme: “Unite to end digital violence against women and girls.”

Like all workplaces, the digital space must be safe, and free from violence and harassment. ILO Convention 190 is designed to ensure that's the case across the world of work. As the #16Days begin, let’s commit to turn C190 into practice through national laws and regulations. — A message from Gilbert F. Houngbo, Director-General of the ILO, on the occasion of the launch of the 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence. #RatifyC190

Together we mark World AIDS Day 2025, under the theme “Overcoming disruption, transforming the AIDS response,” #2025

By talking openly, men can challenge harmful digital behaviors, show solidarity with survivors, and inspire other allies to step forward.

Today’s action is to share your story as part of the HeForShe Men’s Narrative Series, an initiative that invites men and boys to reflect on their experiences, challenge harmful norms, and speak openly about online violence and allyship

We will review submissions and feature selected stories on our website to highlight diverse voices and promote respectful, inclusive digital spaces.
