Abstract

This report explores how women’s rights activists in Fiji are using digital technologies, particularly social media. The research involved 22 participants – women aged between 18 and 35. It questions some assumptions about social media’s strengths and limitations as a platform for advocacy. The research highlights social media as valuable for influencing policymaking, particularly in light of challenges to the country’s mainstream media environment.
