Building Digital Resilience
Girls and young women demand a safer digital future
A collaboration between Plan International and CNN As Equals hearing directly from girls and young women about the harms they face online and how they can be kept safe.
This report is the result of collaboration between Plan International and CNN As Equals to hear directly from young women and girls about the harms they face online, how they protect themselves and how tech companies, governments, local communities and their own families should play their part in keeping them safe.
The intention was to give young women and girls an opportunity to not only talk about their digital lives but also share what they believe is needed for a safer digital future.
The research built upon the insights gained from previous Plan International and CNN As Equals work in this area. This includes Plan’s ‘The Truth Gap’ in 2021 which explored misinformation online and ‘Free to be Online‘ in 2020 which investigated the online harassment girls have faced, as well as the CNN As Equals series ‘Systems Error’.
Through this collaboration, CNN As Equals were able to work with Plan International’s country offices to reach young women and together, through this report, make their voices heard by policy and decision makers.
