Swiping Safely: Navigating Dating Apps After Abuse

This February, to mark Safer Internet Day and Valentine’s Day, join us for “Digital Control: Technology-Facilitated Abuse in Modern Relationships”. A four-part event series exploring how technology shapes trust, intimacy, and control in the digital age.

From smart watches to dating apps, the tools we use daily to connect can also be used to harm. Delivered by our specialist Technology Facilitated Abuse and Economic Empowerment team, this series will shine a light on how everyday technologies can be misused in relationships and how we can effectively support survivors of domestic abuse and their children in the modern world.

Part 2 of this event series focuses on dating apps and their emerging role in abuse. The webinar will examines how perpetrators may utilise dating apps as a mechinism for control both during and after relationships. It will outline best practice recommendations when supporting survivors to date after abuse, as well as the importance of adopting an intersectional approach to ensure survivors are safe on these platforms.
