This factsheet is intended to provide a snapshot of the implications of technology-facilitated gender-based violence (TFGBV) for international peace and security.
It highlights the different forms TFGBV may take globally and includes statistics on this emerging issue. TFGBV is a threat to individual and collective safety and has direct and indirect implications for international peace and security, particularly in cyberspace, where online violence transcends borders and can generate transnational security risks.
The factsheet concludes with suggested areas of action for multilateral organizations, national governments, civil society and industry actors that aim to prevent and mitigate the risk of TFGBV.
