“…Most of these issues are global, but some are specific to certain places or groups of people. Some examples would be discriminations (race, color, and gender), poverty [216], homelessness [217], hunger [218], malnutrition and obesity [219], drug and alcohol addiction [220], depression, anxiety and mental health problems [221], lack of minimum rights and freedom [222], unemployment crisis [223], pandemics and epidemics [224], disabilities and chronic diseases, violence, crime, and insecurity as well as wars and political conflicts [225], gender inequality [226], lack of education and opportunities [227]. Here we discuss four goals that directly address social issues of the world which could be at the top of corporations' CSR plans.…”

Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as a Framework for Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has been an articulated practice for over 7 decades. Still, most corporations lack an integrated framework to develop a strategic, balanced, and effective approach to achieving excellence in CSR. Considering the world’s critical situation during the COVID-19 pandemic, such a framework is even more crucial now. We suggest subsuming CRS categories under Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) be used and that they subsume CSR categories since SDGs are a comprehensive agenda designed for the whole planet. This study presents a new CSR drivers model and a novel comprehensive CSR model. Then, it highlights the advantages of integrating CSR and SDGs in a new framework. The proposed framework benefits from both CSR and SDGs, addresses current and future needs, and offers a better roadmap with more measurable outcomes.

“…Illustrations of complex interactions between online and offline realities around violence abound. For example, Coombs (2021) argues that digital manifestations of violence directly impact various human rights, such as the "rights to privacy, freedom of movement, freedom of expression, and freedom of assembly to name a few, as well as rights relating to freedom from violence" (p. 480). In this context, and as argued by Dunn (2021), to name digital violence as violence is an urgent and necessary task, because "to do otherwise risks minimizing the severity of these actions and fails to recognize their interconnectedness with other more familiar forms of violence" (p. 28).…”

Ecologies of Violence on Social Media: An Exploration of Practices, Contexts, and Grammars of Online Harm

Violence is an almost ubiquitous phenomenon in contemporary digital environments. In this context, there is a growing need to understand how violence is enacted and represented on social media. Drawing from a case study where Colombian young adults discussed the violence they interacted with on their everyday uses of digital platforms, this article explores how violence on social media is experienced and understood by users. Findings emphasize the need to look at violence on digital platforms as a multifaceted, fluid, overlapping, and interconnected phenomenon. In light of these results, I suggest framing current harmful practices as ecologies of violence. To better explore these ecologies, I outline three specific areas that highlight how violence is transformed on social media: practices, contexts, and grammars. Overall, this study emphasizes the need to recognize and address the complexity of violence in social media—a necessary step toward building cultures of peace in and outside of our digital environments.

“…Consequently, it can lead to the limit in practising the RTBF for victims, as the platforms may deny the removal requests because the content is not subject to be deleted according to the law or their policies. Further, it may lead to the minimisation of the victims' experiences by those in power, like what women used to face in history (Coombs, 2021).…”

“…Through the years, IBSA has developed together with the advancement of technology. Given the rising power of technology providers both on individuals and on society as a whole, their influence on women's rights cannot be overlooked (Coombs, 2021). Despite that, tech companies provide users with little safeguards in terms of privacy, justice and equality (Witt et al 2019).…”

“…Relying solely upon their judgements has been proven problematic for victims: in many cases, women's rights are not protected like how they are supposed to be. After all, effective responses need the collaboration of multiple stakeholders in order to exchange information and purposefully reflect lived experiences when making decisions (Coombs, 2021). The responsibility in protecting victims of IBSA does not only fall into digital platforms or governments.…”

European ‘Right to Be Forgotten’ as a Remedy for Image-Based Sexual Abuse: A Critical Review

Image-based sexual abuse, defined as the non-consensual creation or dissemination of private sexual images, has been proved to be a form of sexual violence against women. Despite the borderless impacts of image-based sexual abuse due to its online nature, very little scholarly attention has been given to the legal remedies that victims can take in a more regional context. This article advocates for a new joined-up approach that supports victims of image-based sexual abuse to reclaim control through the right to be forgotten under European data protection law. Under this right, the victims as data subjects can request the data controllersservice providers hosting abuse materialsto erase their non-consensual private sexual images from the platforms. Case study method was conducted with Google, Facebook and Telegram to evaluate the effectiveness of this approach, focusing on three main critiques: platform policies, reporting options, and removal practice in response to image-based sexual abuse. Based on the analyses of these digital platforms' policies and practices, the research identifies five challenges and limitations: (1) limited extraterritorial application of domestic law while dealing with transnational abuse; (2) ambiguous language about how to remove data; (3) absence of standardised terms to define and address all forms of image-based sexual abuse; (4) lack of liability fulfilments from digital platforms; and (5) lack of multi-stakeholder cooperation addressing the abuse. The research concludes that the right to be forgotten is a promising remedy to protect victims of image-based sexual abuse in this digital era, but it needs a multi-stakeholder approach to be able to keep up with transnational violence like imagebased sexual abuse.
