A pivotal moment in feminism and technology.

Fourth Wave Feminism

The fourth wave of feminism harnesses digital connectivity to amplify activism against sexual violence, gender inequity, and systemic oppression. Building upon the intersectional awareness of the third wave, it integrates technology and social media as tools for mobilization and awareness. Movements addressing issues such as pay inequity, body shaming, and reproductive rights have reentered mainstream discourse. While some debate whether the fourth wave has fully materialized, its focus on inclusion, intersectionality, and online advocacy reflects a renewed urgency for gender equity in both physical and digital spaces.⁷ ¹¹
