How Technology Enforces Gender Apartheid

Explore the full report: IBA Gender Apartheid Inquiry Report

Technology is increasingly weaponized to uphold oppressive regimes, and the Gender Apartheid Inquiry Report reveals chilling insights into its use in countries like Iran to enforce gender apartheid.

Surveillance as a Tool of Oppression

  • AI-powered cameras track women violating hijab laws, even in private vehicles.
  • Women-only spaces are infiltrated by surveillance technology and agents to enforce compliance.
  • Social media platforms are weaponized to silence dissent and amplify propaganda.

Why This Matters

This technological oppression institutionalizes gender apartheid, stripping women of privacy, autonomy, and basic human rights. It entrenches a system where even the smallest acts of resistance are met with severe consequences.

What Can Be Done?

The report calls for global accountability, advocating for legal frameworks to address the use of technology in systemic gender oppression. By raising awareness and standing in solidarity, we can ensure technology empowers rather than oppresses.
