Cecilia Maundu is a broadcast journalist, digital rights researcher, and digital security trainer, currently serving as an African Union Media Fellow. Her work lies at the intersection of journalism, technology, and human rights, with a dedicated focus on combating online abuse against women journalists while upholding the principles of freedom of expression.
In addition to her extensive professional endeavours, Cecilia is the host of the “Digital Dada Podcast,” a platform dedicated to addressing online violence against women and promoting digital security. The podcast challenges the misconception that online violence is not “real violence” by sharing conversations with women journalists and leaders from around the globe who have experienced such violence. Through these discussions, “Digital Dada” aims to foster a culture of digital security, encourage constructive online dialogues, and advocate for a safer and more feminist internet.
