Equally Safe Online: Young People Versus Gender-Based Violence is a visual report co-created with young people, computer scientists, and social scientists to explore how artificial intelligence can be used to counter online gender-based violence.

Developed through a collaboration between University of Edinburgh and Heriot‑Watt University, Equally Safe Online places young people’s voices at its centre, shaping not only the research, but how it is communicated and shared.

The work documents the development of an AI chatbot designed to generate counter-speech to online abuse, showing how technology can be used for good when it is guided by lived experience.
