Violence that once occurred on the streets, in schools, or at home now follows us everywhere\u2014through our mobile phones, laptops, and tablets. Anyone can send a message that contains some form of digital, gender-based violence.At the student conference \u201cDigital Freedom and Gender Equality: Break the Chains of Online Violence,\u201d held at the Faculty of Law in Bitola, we discussed gender-based violence in online spaces\u2014forms that may be less visible, yet often have long-lasting psychological consequences for survivors, especially as the digital environment enables global sharing of abuse. The concept of gendered disinformation can also be understood as a manifestation of gender-based violence, as it involves the dissemination of false narratives, stereotypes, and biases that enable and facilitate the marginalization and discrimination of certain groups. <\/p>\n\n

Within the conference, we also launched the Handbook for Addressing Gendered Disinformation and Gender-Based Violence in the Digital Space, authored by Professor Angelina Stanojoska.<\/p>\n\n

Our panelists\u2014Professor Stanojoska; Project Coordinator Ljupka Trajanovska; psychologist and family counselor from the Women\u2019s Support Center in Bitola, Nata\u0161a Bekirova; and UKLO student Zorica Stankovska\u2014agreed that much more must be done to drive institutional change so this violence is taken seriously, survivors learn to recognize it, and the system protects and prevents it.<\/p>\n\n

The conference was held within the regional project \u201cDefend the right to be yourself,\u201d with financial support from the French Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs in North Macedonia.<\/p>\n\n
