Abstract

Social media campaigns on Twitter are one of their primary strategies used by organizations aiming to mitigate the global problem of gender-based violence (GBV). Social media has been touted as a transformative force in social movements, affecting the influence and interplay of actors in advocacy networks, and their entrepreneurship in shaping policy. We examine the social media campaigns of three anti-GBV organizations operating at the local, national, and global levels to assess the nature and extent of their effectiveness.
