Bridging the Gap: Public-Private Governance Frameworks to Combat AI-Facilitated Cyberviolence

Description

This presentation addresses the challenge of combating technology-facilitated cyberviolence against minors in the EU’s complex digital landscape dominated by global platforms. It examines the EU’s regulatory approach centred on ‘by design’ obligations, such as risk assessments, privacy and safety features, notification duties, and conformity assessments, highlighted by the Digital Services Act and the proposed CSA Regulation. Alongside these measures, it explores legal assistance duties on companies to support law enforcement, grounded in the Budapest Cybercrime Convention, the Dutch Code of Criminal Procedure, and forthcoming e-Evidence legislation. Drawing on analysis of legal doctrine, corporate transparency reports, enforcement practices, and case law, the presentation assesses how these obligations interact to enhance both prevention and prosecution. It proposes a governance framework for public–private collaboration, emphasising regulatory alignment, independent oversight, and future coordination by Europol and EU digital regulators to uphold fundamental rights and improve responses to online harms.
