We are grateful to the DELHI FOUNDATION OF DEAF WOMEN (DFDW) for providing the opportunity to Senior Associates Priya Dhankhar and Siddharth Nigotia from the SKV Law Offices Dispute Resolution Team to speak at the “Swayam Shakti – Legal Awareness For Deaf” organised by them. The event was organised on 28th September 2024 by DFDW, an organisation affiliated with All India Foundation of Deaf Women at the Bhai Veer Singh Sahitya Sadan, New Delhi - to spread awareness about several gender-based crimes that are unfortunately prevalent in our society. Our team members spoke in the presence of a sign language interpreter about Cyber Crime against women – given the increased dependency on information technology in recent years. Priya and Siddharth spoke to the attendees on recognising and effective steps to prevent falling prey to several crimes such as cyberstalking, online harassment and trolling, morphing one’s images, videos or digital content, doxing – which is threatening to release/find someone’s location and financial frauds. The team also spoke on sensitive issues, such as non-consensual sharing of intimate content – as is involved in sextortion crimes. The team also raised awareness regarding the options available for reporting cybercrimes, especially for victims which are deaf. After a public speech, the team members also spent some time speaking to the attendees in private sessions, where they opened the forum to them for questions, queries and sound legal advice. It is a privilege to provide our time to events organised by dedicated civil rights organisations such as the DFDW. #knowledgesharing #legalupdates #disputeresolution #legalawareness #servingsociety #lawfirm #skvlawoffices
