Campaigning for a safe, just, and feminist Internet: Platform Accountability!
We, a group of civil society organisations, from the Global South have launched a platform accountability campaign this year, to hold meta accountable for the social, economic, and democratic harms it has caused and facilitated in the Global South, especially to structurally excluded groups.
We are calling on Meta to account for them, act responsibly towards all users and impacted communities, and respect our agency and rights.

Redesigning Social Media
A striking consensus emerged: while social media offers vital tools for connection, community-building, and professional growth, its current form is overwhelmingly associated with negative experiences
Dominant themes included severe mental health impacts (anxiety, addiction, exhaustion), significant safety concerns (harassment, trolling, stalking, doxxing), and a profound loss of user agency to opaque, profit-drivenalgorithms. Participants collaboratively designed solutions centred on a fundamental power shift back to the user.
