Abstract

The era of digital technology and electronic media has become a major reason for the diversity and multiplicity of effects that have emerged in our societies and directly affected most of its social groups, especially women whether negatively or positively. Undoutedly, it is clear the positive effect that reflected the role of women and the reality of being an effective factor in society in all its political, social, cultural and even economic aspects, whether in peacetime or conflict. Women have become peacemakers and leaders in their societies.


However, this technological revolution has left negative effect on women and their rights and the most serious one is the impudent images the media publishes which are not appropriate to their value or place in society. Thus, the electronic media plays a negative role in their exploitation, manipulation and in violating their rights through considering them as a commodity that is bought and sold on websites for sexual or terrorist purposes.


Women are sometimes defamed or subject to privacy violation or being threatened or blackmailed and what we see today is a clear evidence of such threats against the brains and the activists in the field of the human rights. Therefore, for the importance of this topic and its risks, there has been a special focus on the role of the electronic media and its reflections on women's rights within the framework of the rules of the international law.
