Digital Rights Foundation

Digital Rights Foundation (DRF) is an award-winning, female-led not-for-profit, non-governmental organization working on providing safe online spaces in Pakistan since 2013. DRF focuses on Information and communication technologies to support women’s rights, inclusiveness, democratic processes, and digital governance through services like our flagship Digital Security Helpline launched in 2016, capacity-building trainings and direct support via legal aid in technology-facilitated gender-based violence (TFGBV) cases to young women and girls. The organization has worked on issues of access, digital citizenship, online safety and TFGBV, disinformation and gendered disinformation, digital literacy and creating awareness about emerging technologies such as AI and generative AI exacerbating harms against women and children.

What our Goals?

Our priority is to empower women and girls through ICTs. Women’s access to ICTs and the internet is essential for a working economy and leads to a positive development in society and the empowerment of women in the workforce. DRF has worked extensively with young women, children, female journalists, and civil society to provide training workshops and build capacity around digital safety, mental well-being, legal redressal mechanisms, emerging tech and AI, gender-sensitization and disinformation and misinformation in online spaces.
