🗳️🔍 What is the relationship between gendered disinformation and elections? 1️⃣ Gendered disinformation can deter women and sexual/gender minorities from politics, targeting them with aggression and intimidation. The goal? To limit their participation and undermine their careers. 2️⃣ Such disinformation often uses sexist stereotypes to discredit gender minority candidates, hitting particularly hard on Black, Indigenous, and Women of Colour with racist and religious attacks. 3️⃣ It also manipulates public opinion, deepens polarisation, and heightens group tensions. Disinformation is often state-backed and strategically deployed. 4️⃣ Anti-gender and authoritarian actors misrepresent feminist policies on abortion, gender-affirming care, and sexuality education to create moral panic. 5️⃣ These narratives, claiming feminism and “gender ideology” are societal threats, are spread by various groups including the Catholic Church and right-wing think tanks. Understanding and addressing gendered disinformation is crucial for a fair and inclusive electoral process. 🌍✊ Together with Microsoft, CFFP is implementing a project that will promote the integration of intersectional, feminist perspectives into the discourse and policy development on disinformation, allowing us to understand the scale of this threat in all of its facets and to develop the appropriate solutions.

🇲🇽 As highlighted by Lyric Thompson, founder and CEO of the Feminist Foreign Policy Collaborative, in her recent article (🔗 Link in comments), Mexico made history in 2020 by becoming the first Latin American country to adopt a Feminist Foreign Policy. Under the leadership of Foreign Minister Alicia Bárcena and President Claudia Sheinbaum, Mexico continues to push this agenda forward, overcoming political challenges. In July 2024, it became the first non-European country to host the annual FFP conference, demonstrating their commitment to gender equality. Mexico's efforts include advocating for women's and LGBTQ+ rights and promoting gender equity in climate action, paving the way for a more equitable future. 👉 Swipe through to learn more about Mexico's progress and the global movement for feminist foreign policy.

🔍 An Eye on the Future of Cybercrime Regulation: The Future Looks Dark for an Open, Global, and Interoperable Internet — Feminist Demands Remain Overlooked Since Monday, 29 July 2024, CFFP Junior Project Manager Vivienne Kobel has been following the reconvened concluding session of negotiations on a potential new UN Cybercrime Convention at the United Nations Headquarters in New York as part of the delegation of the Alliance of NGOs on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice. 💻 While global regulation of cybercrime is undeniably necessary, it is equally important to uphold and protect digital human rights. After more than two and a half years of negotiations, the outlook is bleak for an open, global, and interoperable internet — especially regarding feminist concerns that have largely been overlooked. Despite the tireless efforts of civil society organisations, activists, and stakeholders since the start in 2022, critical language on gender and human rights has been diluted throughout the negotiation process. 📉 Evidence shows that many national cybercrime laws have been misused to criminalise vulnerable groups and suppress political dissent. A notable report by Paloma Lara Castro from Derechos Digitales and Association for Progressive Communications, titled “When protection becomes an excuse for criminalisation - Gender considerations on cybercrime frameworks”, highlights instances where women have been prosecuted under cybercrime legislation for activities such as advocating for civil society protests, raising awareness about online sexual harassment, or criticising government policies. As the final negotiations conclude on 9 August, it is crucial that democratic states ensure the remaining human rights safeguards are retained in the Draft text. As Raman Jit Singh Chima from Access Now has rightly stated in digital rights organisation’s intervention during the 4th meeting of the reconvened session: “A UN Cybercrime Convention should not be used to delete or unjustly alter the last two decades worth of international law on human rights and privacy in the digital age”. Even as the negotiation phase draws to a close, CFFP remains committed to advocating for feminist perspectives in the global discourse on cybercrime regulation. With generous support from the Heinrich-Böll-Stiftung | Global Unit for Human Security, we are launching our new project, "Feminist Perspectives on the Regulation of Cybercrime." Stay tuned! 🚀

🚨 The rise of AI has supercharged the spread of gendered disinformation, making it easier than ever to amplify hateful content. This digital menace targets gender minorities and fuels harmful stereotypes. 🌐🤖 How Does Gendered Disinformation Interact with Artificial Intelligence? 1️⃣ The weaponisation of gendered disinformation is not new, but AI has dramatically increased its scope and scale. AI exacerbates this issue by amplifying hateful or misleading content and accelerating its spread. 🔄💻 2️⃣ Social media algorithms, driven by AI, prioritise content that boosts user engagement. As a result, inflammatory or manipulated posts are often promoted over accurate information. This can lead to the widespread dissemination of harmful narratives. 📈📰 3️⃣ A 2024 study by the University of Kent and UCL found that TikTok’s algorithm was pushing misogynistic content towards young people. As users engage more, they encounter increasingly extreme and hateful content about women, often disguised as humour. 📱 4️⃣ The availability of generative AI tools has made it easy for anyone to create misleading or manipulated content at scale. A major concern is the rise of "deepfakes." 🤖🔍 5️⃣ Deepfakes, which use AI to alter or mimic someone's face or voice, are often pornographic and predominantly target women. These harmful tools can create false dialogue or inappropriate contexts, impacting gender minorities, especially those in authority or high-profile positions. 🎭 As we navigate this evolving landscape, it's crucial to understand and mitigate the impact of AI-driven gendered disinformation. Together with Microsoft, CFFP is implementing a project that will promote the integration of intersectional, feminist perspectives into the discourse and policy development on disinformation, allowing us to understand the scale of this threat in all of its facets and to develop the appropriate solutions.

🤔 What is gendered disinformation? It's the deliberate spread of false information to deceive the public, often including hate speech, rumours, and propaganda. 📢 Feminist research shows it disproportionately impacts women and gender minorities, using misogynistic stereotypes to silence them. 🚫 It also causes societal harm, creating moral panic and targeting policies related to gender and sexuality. Together with Microsoft, CFFP is implementing a project that will promote the integration of intersectional, feminist perspectives into the discourse and policy development on disinformation, allowing us to understand the scale of this threat in all of its facets and to develop the appropriate solutions.

🌍🗳️ 2024 is a historic year for elections. Globally, more voters than ever in history will head to the polls with at least 64 countries holding elections. Representing almost half of the world’s population, these elections will have a significant impact on the state of democracy around the world. 🌐 While increasing attention is being paid to the threat that (AI-driven) disinformation can pose to the integrity of electoral processes, crucial gender-sensitive and feminist perspectives are largely missing. The absence of feminist perspectives in prominent discourse and legislation on disinformation will only exacerbate the gendered harms caused by disinformation before and during elections and its impact on women and LGBTQI* candidates. In addition to this, neglecting the gendered nature and implications of disinformation poses a threat to the health of our democracies. 🔍 As CFFP’s research on the transnational anti-feminist movement has demonstrated, key actors have been instrumentalizing disinformation as part of a larger effort to increase polarisation within and between states and to weaken our multilateral structures. Authoritarian leaders and anti-gender actors have weaponized gendered disinformation as a tactic to unsettle faith in democratic institutions, to hinder human rights advocacy, to sow division, and to deter governments from pursuing particular policy goals. Together with Microsoft, CFFP is implementing a project that will promote the integration of intersectional, feminist perspectives into the discourse and policy development on disinformation, allowing us to understand the scale of this threat in all of its facets and to develop the appropriate solutions.
