In 2022, online violence topped the list of forms of violence faced by the LGBT+ community, according to the 2023 report on LGBTIphobia. Social media serves as the primary breeding ground for this violence, where rejection, insults, and defamation are commonplace.
This roundtable discussion will provide an opportunity to define the legal parameters of cyberbullying, address the impact of this violence—which is sometimes trivialized—on victims, and engage in dialogue with the organization #jesuislà, which offers new tools to effectively combat all forms of online harassment and discrimination.

Open to the general public.
