Накратко на български

Дигиталните технологии и тяхната роля при насилието към мигранти жени в Норвегия се анализират чрез примери за търсене на помощ или нови рискове. Това помага да се разберат пречките пред тези жени и как електронните услуги могат да подобрят достъпа до безопасност.

Safety and Resilience through Digital Practices: A Participatory Study with Women at the Intersection of Gender-Based Violence and Immigration in Norway

The project investigated the interconnectedness of digital technologies and gender-based violence (GBV) in the experiences of migrant women living in Norway. It aimed to examine the ways in which digital technologies can help migrant women mitigate the harm caused by GBV and facilitate their processes of reaching out to support and achieve safety from violence. The project also investigated how digital technologies intersect with GBV dynamics that women were already exposed to, creating more harm in their lives, and hindering their ways to safety. It particularly focused on the experiences of migrant women survivors of GBV because GBV-related resources and services were documented as less accessible for migrant women due to factors such as language barriers, lack of cultural competence of the services, or distrust of authorities. In this context, as technology-facilitated anti-violence advocacy and support practices are increasingly popularized in GBV service practices, the project aimed to explore if such digital practices can be used in transformative ways to reduce help-seeking barriers that migrant women encounter. The project also sought to understand the implications of widespread digital transformation efforts that can be witnessed in Norway and beyond. Digitalization policies in Norway focus on developing effective digital governance practices to increase the accessibility of state services for citizens. The crucial impact of these policies and digital practices in GBV service provision and in the lives of migrant GBV victim-survivors, as a previously unexplored topic, was a central focus of the project.

Цел на проекта

Rahaf Mohammed, an 18-year-old Saudi woman who was subjected to domestic violence, utilized social media to make her voice heard by foreign authorities. Via this ‘digital’ call for help, she successfully escaped violence. The internationally recognized #metoo movement became active on social media enabling women victims of gender-based violence (GBV) to seek justice and healing. While these examples show how digital technologies can allow individuals to exercise their agency and communicate their voices against violence, the existing academic studies in the field of GBV have yet to discuss the empowering outcomes of digital technology use for and by victims/survivors. By addressing this gap, SaRe-DiGT aims to uncover the potentialities of digital technologies in enhancing victims'/survivors’ physical and emotional safety against violence. I particularly focus on the patterns and practices of digital technology use by immigrant women who have experiences of GBV. Considering the numerous barriers that immigrant women face while seeking safety from violence, SaRe-DiGT stresses on the instrumental use of digital technologies as a practical resource for information, communication, and mobilization to overcome violence. The project includes three phases: i) participatory focus groups, to identify and examine the opportunities enabled by digital technology use in women’s lives to navigate their ways towards safety and resilience from violence; ii) digital storytelling workshops, to co-develop resilience-promoting practices enabled by the creative use of digital technologies; and iii) website designing workshops, to co-design an online initiative as a practical digital resource to assist immigrant women in their efforts to reach safety and build resilience. In achieving these objectives, SaRe-DiGT will provide unique research-based knowledge and solutions to create transformative technology-facilitated strategies to combat violence among immigrant communities in Europe.""
