Online violence against women journalists: A global snapshot of incidence and impacts

A study that shows how online violence fueled by disinformation and political attacks deeply harms women journalists.

These findings are among the first released in a survey conducted by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) and the International Center for Journalists (ICFJ) on online violence against women journalists.
