Student Project - Thesis
This thesis proposal aims to support women’s rights by increasing their representation and voices on social media, which can be a powerful tool for promoting gender equality.
Research has shown that social media has proven potential for mobilizing attention and accountability to women’s rights, and challenging discrimination and stereotypes. Hashtag activism has helped to mobilize public attention on women’s rights, increasing the visibility of issues that are under-reported in mainstream media. Social media tools have also helped female victims to share their experiences of violence with other victims, creating a space to exchange knowledge and information on their rights, legal processes, and welfare services.
Deliverables: A website and social media campaign that aims to support women’s rights by promoting gender equality.
