anging from research to advocacy, this document is part of a framework we have designed to support policy makers and civil society organisations in developing gender-responsive cybersecurity policies. This framework also includes two other documents, and we recommend that those using this assessment tool consult them before putting the principles and processes we outline here into practice: a literature review that explores how cybersecurity as a gendered space has been addressed in research; a document identifying norms, standards and guidelines that cybersecurity policy makers and advocates can draw on when seeking to promote a gender approach within national or multilateral cybersecurity discussions."

tous et toutes, tout en défendant vigoureusement le droit à la liberté d’opinion et d’expression ainsi que le droit d’accès à l’information. Le code de conduite portant sur l’intégrité de l’information diffusée sur les plateformes numériques est en cours d’élaboration dans le cadre des préparatifs du Sommet de l’avenir. J’espère qu’il servira de guide dans la formulation de mesures de renforcement de l’intégrité de l’information. Les plateformes numériques sont des outils essentiels qui ont transformé les interactions sociales, culturelles et politiques partout dans le monde, en mettant en relation des citoyens préoccupés par des questions importantes. Grâce à elles, les Nations Unies informent le public et dialoguent directement avec les personnes qui oeuvrent en faveur de la paix, de la dignité et de l’égalité sur une planète saine. Ces plateformes ont donné de l’espoir aux peuples pendant les périodes de crise et de lutte, elles ont amplifié des voix qui n’étaient pas entendues auparavant et fait naître des mouvements mondiaux."
