Under our Radar: Tech Abuse Chat by The Empower Project

Today, Womenbeing Project brings you extreme good news for feminists based in Edinburgh. Looking at amazing organizations like The Empower Project, today we would like to invite you to be part on their event: Chat Tech Abuse! Since the #metoo movement and time’s up being brought to our lives more and more and giving awareness to the world about what happens to women in their everyday lives, is everyday more necessary to create and be present in talks like this one.

The Empower Project is a feminist charity based in Scotland, working hard to support communities to end violence against women. They work with individuals, with institutions and campaign on social ideas. They offer training- looking at everything from new technologies to confidence, from bystander approaches, to sex ed. They offer strategic support to help communities think about what steps they need to take to tackle violence. We are positive, progressive and proactive.

Their vision is a world in which every member of every community works to support survivors and hold perpetrators of violence against women and girls to account; a world in which every member of every community understands that violence against women and girls isn’t inevitable; a world in which every member of every community understands that violence against women and girls is rooted in inequality. The Empower Project wants to invite you to talk about tech abuse and what we can do about it: Revenge Porn, Harassment, Coercion Online Sex, Abuse and the Digital age. Come along, chat, learn, connect and help The Empower Project to tell those in power what they should be doing about it.

So, if you are interested in any of this topics, please meet us and let’s empower women in Scotland even more. This event will take place on the 5th of February at Teviot’s Balcony Room from 5-7 pm.
