White text set in a coral to purple oval that is set in a purple to coral background that reads: The vritual is real: Stop Digital Violence!

A woman stands with her back to the viewer looking over her shoulder. She is surrounded by cactus plants covered in sharp spines and two pink flowers, and her dress is covered with brown handprints. The text reads: My Body is not Your Content. The Non-Consensual Sharing of Intimate Material is Sexual Violence.

Pink-to-purple gradient poster inviting people to join the campaign in multiple languages: Russian, Portuguese (‘Participe da campanha’), English (‘Join the campaign’), French (‘Rejoignez-nous’), Arabic, and Spanish (‘Súmate a la campaña’). Center text: ‘365TOENDGBV.’ At the bottom are icons for Instagram, TikTok, and a black butterfly, with the CUNY SPH Sexual & Reproductive Justice Hub logo

Digital violence against women and gender diverse people is not a game; it is an extension of sexist violence that seeks to intimidate, silence, and limit women's participation in the public space.

Digital security is a fundamental human right.
