Digital Safety For real life.

We all use the internet without a second thought — but few people realise how quickly everyday interactions can become unsafe.

A friendly message, a shared photo, or a comment that seems harmless can quickly cross boundaries or be used to cause harm.

Digital violence is one of the fastest-growing forms of abuse, affecting people of all ages and backgrounds, especially women, teens, and young adults. It includes manipulation, harassment, stalking, and the misuse of technology to control, intimidate, or shame.

This workshop is part of the UN’s 2025 Global Theme for the 16 Days of Activism: UNiTE to End Digital Violence Against All Women and Girls.

The campaign calls attention to a new front of gender-based violence: the digital space — and invites all of us to help create safer, more respectful online environments.

We’re hosting this workshop to make that message practical, actionable, and accessible to anyone, anywhere.

Because online safety isn’t just a women’s issue.

It’s a human one.

And when we understand how digital abuse actually works, we can stop it earlier, respond more confidently, and help others do the same — no matter where we live or work.

What You’ll Learn in 90 Minutes

You don’t need to be a tech expert to stay safer online — just informed, prepared, and clear on what’s okay (and what’s not).

In this live, interactive session, you’ll discover:

✅ The most common tactics used in digital abuse,  and how to identify them early
✅ How online harm leads to offline consequences.
✅ How to support someone — including your child — if they’re being targeted
✅ How to document and report abuse safely
✅ Where to get help if things go further than expected

You’ll also receive:

• The Red Flag Radar Checklist
• A fillable Digital Boundaries Statement template
• The Digital Safety Plan (PDF)
• A Reporting & Support Guide

These are yours to keep and use, for yourself, your kids, your clients, or your community.

This workshop is for you if…

• You’ve felt pressure, discomfort, or boundary-crossing online
• You want to protect your personal life without disappearing from digital spaces
• You’re a parent guiding kids or teens through a world you didn’t grow up in
