Turning EU Laws Into Action
This project aims to strengthen civil society’s ability to combat technology-facilitated gender-based violence (TFGBV) by turning EU legislation—such as the Digital Services Act, the AI Act, and the Violence Against Women Directive—into concrete advocacy and support tools. The project addresses a critical knowledge gap among CSOs regarding how to interpret and leverage these laws effectively. Through Nordic collaboration, it will provide training, advocacy toolkits, and foster transnational partnerships. The desired outcome is improved implementation and enforcement of EU laws, enabling CSOs to better protect women and LGBTI individuals from online abuse and to hold digital platforms accountable.
