On February 12, 2026, an online meeting was held via the Zoom platform with women’s groups from the municipalities of Khoni and Senaki, organized by the Women’s Fund Sukhumi.
The main topic of the meeting was technology-facilitated abuse and the forms of control and pressure exercised in digital spaces within intimate relationships. Participants discussed the challenges present in online environments and the harm that often remains unnoticed.
Special attention was given to practical issues, including the protection of personal data, account security, preservation of evidence, and ways to seek assistance when needed.
During the meeting, participants emphasized the importance of recognising the problem and speaking openly about it, which is an essential prerequisite for preventing violence and creating a safe environment.
The project is implemented with the support of the WAVE Network
