With support from the Department of Heritage’s Digital Citizens Contribution Program, MIGS launched the Canadian Women Leaders' Digital Defence Initiative in January 2021. The project sought to highlight online harassment of female journalists and politicians in Canada, and its impacts on democracy.

Join us for the launch of the "Canadian Women Leaders' Digital Defence Initiative" report, which will highlight the problem on online abuse targeting Canadian women and recommendations on how to confront these online harms.
