More than 50 percent of girls and women between the age of 15-25 have been cyberstalked, sent explicit messages and photos, been harassed and abused online, according to a new global survey.
The study, conducted by Plan International, revealed that the abuses experienced by the girls forced them to exit social media and left them “traumatised.”
14,000 young women from 31 different countries were part of the global survey.
