Tech-Facilitated Gender-Based Violence refers to any form of violence, harassment, or abuse that is enabled or amplified through the use of technology, such as social media, messaging apps, or online platforms. It includes actions like cyberbullying, online stalking, non-consensual sharing of intimate images, and online harassment. In commemoration of the International Day of the Boy Child, GoldHeart Foundation, in partnership with THE BOYTHRIVE INITIATIVE, is launching an impactful campaign at Annunciation School Ikere-Ekiti, 17th May 2024. Our campaign aims to raise awareness among young boys and girls about the dangers and impact of tech-facilitated GBV. We believe that educating boys about respectful online behavior, consent, and the importance of promoting equality and safety online is crucial in building a safer digital environment for all. Join us in this important campaign and help create a world free from tech-facilitated gender-based violence. #TechAgainstGBV #BoyChildThrive #GoldHeartFoundation #InternationalDayOfTheBoyChild

Our representatives recently took part in a one-day Capacity Building Training for Frontline Gender-Based Violence (GBV) Service Providers. The training focused on transmitting GBV data into the GBV National Dashboard. This event was organized by the Gender Pillar of the Covid-19 Preparedness and Response (CoPREP) project, in collaboration with the Ministry of Health and Human Services and the Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Development in Ekiti State. During the training, our representatives learned about the importance of accurate and timely data collection to effectively address gender-based violence in our communities. They also acquired practical skills on how to input data into the GBV National Dashboard, ensuring that critical information reaches the appropriate authorities and enables evidence-based decision-making. This knowledge will enhance our efforts in providing better support and services to survivors of GBV in our community. 25th April 2024. #GBV #CapacityBuilding #Training #CoPREP #EkitiState
