Friend,

Today, on the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, we’re asking you to take action. Online misogyny is growing fast – and young women and girls are paying the price.

This year, the Emmy Award-winning show Adolescence kick-started a global conversation about how incel communities pull boys and young men into extreme sexist beliefs. It struck a chord because it reflects a real and urgent problem.

Our research shows the world’s largest incel forum has nearly doubled in size since 2022 – reaching 2.7 million visits in early 2025. Every one of those visits represents someone being exposed to an ideology that fuels harassment, hate, and violence against women.

As alarming as this evidence is, together, we can change this. At CCDH, it’s our mission to hold platforms accountable, expose harmful networks, and push for safer digital spaces for all. Your generous support drives our investigations and campaigns to stop online violence before it spills into our offline communities.

In gratitude for your support from now until Giving Tuesday, your gift includes an exclusive invitation to a digital evening of awareness with our CEO, Imran Ahmed, where he’ll share our path forward in the fight against digital harms in 2026.

And as you consider your gift, you can also take a meaningful advocacy step in less than one minute: add your voice to the call for stronger protections for women and girls online and share it with someone you trust.

Thank you for standing with us. Together, we can turn the tide.

Warmly,

The CCDH Team
