Background

The Nordic countries are among the most digitized in the world, a superpower to promote a diversity of voices. But when digitalization helps expand a growing resistance to gender equality, we must act. The Nordic region is unlike any other when it comes to providing a swift political response to online gender-based violence.

The Nordic countries are known for their success when it comes to gender equality. However, gender-based violence persists. The goal of the Nordic cooperation is seeking to ensure that everyone can enjoy a life free from sexual harassment, violations, and violence.
