Millions of women shared their stories of sexual harassment and abuse in 2017 making it a global movement that was named #MeToo.
It took off on social media and fuelled a worldwide discussion on just how endemic sexual harassment has been. It has been used millions of times in over 85 countries.

The women, and men, who broke their silence to share their stories of victimisation gave traction to the #MeToo campaign.
