Human rights implications of technology-facilitated gender-based violence: Submission to the Human Rights Council Advisory Committee

Amnesty International submits this document in response to the call for input for the study of the Human Rights Council Advisory Committee on technology-facilitated gender-based violence (TfGBV) and its impact (as per HRC resolution 56/19) to the 63rd session of the Human Rights Council. In this submission, Amnesty International presents a global overview of the occurrence and impact of TfGBV and holistic strategies to address it, including: (1) Impact of TfGBV on a range of human rights; (2) Intersectional nature of TfGBV and targeting of groups based on their marginalized identities and/or profession; (3) Legal and policy measures that enable and allow TfGBV to be perpetuated; (4) Gaps in human rights frameworks to address TfGBV; (5) Recommendations for addressing TfGBV more holistically.
