Hi ,

In recent months, we've been investigating the impact of online misogyny, which is impacting young people in Scotland and across the world. 

We've reported on the projects attempting to challenge the toxic brand of masculinity promoted by influencers like Andrew Tate, and explained the language and concepts underpinning the so-called 'manosphere'. 

On Thursday 5 December, we're hosting a live event in Glasgow, with experts discussing the roots behind this newly-packaged form of misogyny, and how we can tackle it.

'Man up? How positive action can beat online misogyny' will feature:

• Lisa Sugiura: Associate Professor in Cybercrime and Gender at the University of Portsmouth and author of 'The Incel Rebellion: The Rise of the Manosphere and the Virtual War Against Women'

• Clare Duffy: Founder of Civic Digits Theatre Company. Their new project, Many Good Men, examines the impact of incel culture and how young men can fight against it.

• Iain Corbett: Youth worker and “positive masculinity” workshop leader inside Polmont Young Offenders Institute.

• Zero Tolerance: Scottish charity working to end men’s violence against women through tackling gender inequality
