The PEI Coalition for Women in Government is holding a presentation and panel this week on the issue of cyber-violence faced by women in politics.
The Coalition says that on PEI, and around the world, women in politics face harassment, threats, and violence based on their gender.
Many of the hateful messages come through social media, email, and the Internet.
The event is being held in McDougall Hall at UPEI and it’s open to the public.
