About #TAXAWTEMM

A groundbreaking toolkit designed to raise awareness and help the general public deal with the different forms of online harassment.

An information, awareness and advocacy campaign

The “#TaxawTemm!” campaign is a joint initiative, run in partnership with Internews and AfricTivistes, that aims to proactively tackle online violence targeting girls and women in Senegal.

Its main goal is to raise awareness, inform and mobilise a wide range of actors across society in order to create a safe and respectful digital environment for everyone.

Our mission

“TaxawTemm” is a clear and determined call to action to end online violence, which has a particularly harmful impact on girls and women. It also aims to encourage an open dialogue about building a digital space where everyone can speak freely without fear of harassment or intimidation.
