WESNET is hosting the 4th Technology Safety Summit, to bring together national and international experts on technology safety and violence against women.

The virtual Tech Summit 2022 will bring together sector and corporate leaders working with or supporting victim-survivors of technology-facilitated abuse in their use of technology, and their journeys in finding ways to harness technology to improve services with a domestic and family violence lens.

This year’s topics will focus on trending issues of technology-facilitated abuse in the context of domestic and family violence, as well as emerging technologies addressing the intersection of technology, privacy and violence against women.

Join us in exploring the ways technology and its uses are still evolving, and what happens when it intersects with intimate partner violence and other forms of gender-based violence.

Don’t miss out! Send us your expression of interest and we will keep you updated on this year’s program and early bird ticket dates.

The 4th Tech Summit is going virtual. Held over three days, the Tech Summit will include a range of plenary and other sessions exploring relevant topics on the intersection of Technology and Violence Against Women. Scroll down for a peek at the draft program.

All live sessions will have closed captions and Auslan sponsored by Women with Disabilities Australia.

The Tech Summit is for anyone interested in the intersection between technology and violence against women and is relevant for frontline workers, police, lawyers and other legal professionals, policymakers, researchers, and technologists interested in the intersection of technology, privacy, security and violence against women. Attendees have the opportunity to engage and build relationships across relevant sectors, supporting knowledge sharing and collaboration to address technology-facilitated abuse.
