Nov 26 | Women, Technology, and Peacemaking Webinar: 25 Years After UNSCR 1325 - The Citizen Lab

This webinar brings together Citizen Lab researchers with policy advisors, Women, Peace and Security (WPS) experts, and human rights defenders to reflect on twenty-five years of the WPS agenda in the age of digital repression. The discussion will explore how gender, technology, and authoritarianism intersect to shape women’s participation in peace and security, and how targets of gendered digital attacks and feminist movements are building resilience and reimagining women’s digital security for the next 25 years.

Our investigation of a spearphishing campaign that targeted senior members of the World Uyghur Congress in March 2025 reveals a highly-customized attack delivery method. The ruse used by attackers replicates a pattern in which threat actors weaponize software and websites aimed at preserving and supporting marginalized and repressed cultures to target those same communities.
