Take Back the Tech! is a collaborative campaign initiated by the Association for Progressive Communications, Women's Networking Support Programme (APC WNSP) in 2006 that looks at the connection between information and communication technologies (ICT) and violence against women.

This mapping platform is part of the Take Back the Tech!i campaign, and provides a space for the documenting and monitoring of experiences and stories of women and girls who faced violence against womeni (VAW) online or through the use of mobile phone technologies. The interactive map monitors technology-related VAW according to five broad categories: the type of VAW, the act of violation (what the abuser or violator did), the harm faced by twomen survivors, the technology platform which was implicated or used in the incidence of VAW, and the level of familiarity or involvement with the abuser or violator. In collaboration with the local campaigners, the map operates in 10 languages, including French, Spanish, Bosnian, Lugandan, Arabic, Urdu and Portuguese.
