United front: Mobilising against gender-based violence and online abuse

As part of the 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence, this event addressed the initiatives and challenges for the new EU leadership in tackling gender-based violence, promoting gender equality and in safeguarding women’s safety and rights.

The panel discussion also delved into protecting girls and women from AI abuse online, taking into account Microsoft’s white paper “Protecting the public from abusive AI-generated content”.

Bringing together representatives from the EU institutions, the private sector and organised civil society, these discussions tackled the troubling rise in anti-gender discourse and ideology, marked by a deliberate propagation of regressive ideologies and gender stereotypes, and the solutions and necessary measures to advance equality and build strong, diverse alliances.

The panel featured:

Maria Rosaria MOLLICA, Team Leader, DG JUST’s Violence against women, European Commission
Katarina WALLIN BUREAU, General Manager, Strategic Relations, Microsoft
Maria KOOMEN, Governance Director, International Center for Future Generations (ICFG)

Moderated by Maja Bobic, European Movement International
