Sharmin S. Murshid, adviser to Bangladesh’s interim government on social welfare and women and children affairs, has expressed concern over the growing insecurity women face in cyberspace. Speaking at a national dialogue on ending online harassment of women, held at the China Friendship Conference Center, she emphasized that while technology advances, societal attitudes will determine its impact. Murshid cited data showing that 59% of women internet users face online harassment, with 90% reporting incidents, but weak enforcement of existing laws allows offenders to act with impunity. She announced that her ministry’s quick response team will reach victims within 24 hours. Senior officials and international representatives from Australia, Sweden, and UN Women stressed the need for stronger laws, institutional coordination, and public awareness. They noted that less than 40% of countries have legal protections against cyber harassment, leaving 1.8 billion women and girls vulnerable. The dialogue was part of the global 16 Days of Activism campaign.
