Through personal testimonies, portraits and reflections, the book honours their determination to keep telling stories that matter. This publication features illustrations by Hadeel Ahmed and was made possible through programmes <a href=\"https:\/\/www.masarouna.org\/\">Masarouna<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/rutgers.international\/programmes\/right-here-right-now\/\">Right Here, Right Now<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why TFGBV Matters<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Technology-Facilitated Gender-Based Violence (TFGBV) is a growing threat to freedom of expression. For women in media, it\u2019s not just about online harassment \u2013 it\u2019s a professional and personal safety risk that aims to silence their voices. By documenting and amplifying these experiences, we aim to challenge impunity, raise awareness and drive structural change in the digital media space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Campaign for Safety and Solidarity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The launch of this book is part of our broader <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rnw.media\/index.php\/international-womans-day-petition\/\">International Women\u2019s Day campaign<\/a>, which this year is dedicated to promoting the safety of women in media. Throughout March, we spotlighted the threats women face online, shared tools for digital safety and stood in solidarity with those fighting back against online violence \u2013 demanding accountability and action from platforms, policymakers and media institutions alike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Watch the Official Launch <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Launch: Under Attack, Still We Rise! \u2013 Stories of Women Media Makers Facing Digital Violence\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LwMuhQQm-0c?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" data-load-mode=\"1\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We proudly launch Under Attack, Still We Rise!, a powerful digital book featuring women journalists confronting online violence and defending press freedom.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":19062,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"tags":[45,41],"class_list":["post-19061","news","type-news","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-gender","tag-information-integrity"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rnw.media\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/19061","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rnw.media\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rnw.media\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rnw.media\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rnw.media\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19061"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rnw.media\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/19062"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rnw.media\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19061"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rnw.media\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=19061"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
