Taking humour seriously for online safety

有害幽默会影响女性在网上的健康，但社交媒体平台管理不善，也没有纳入网络安全监管和政策。该项目旨在将社会文化理论、社交媒体分析和访谈结合起来，以更好地了解澳大利亚在线有害幽默的动态。它将与用户、社区领袖和行业利益相关者合作，评估当前的平台和政策反应，以及如何改进它们。预期的成果包括理论进步、更好的内容审核流程的可行原则，在不限制健康表达的情况下减少伤害，以及对在线安全监管辩论的基于证据的贡献。

Harmful humour impacts on women’s wellbeing online, but is poorly managed by social media platforms, and has not been integrated into online safety regulation and policy. This project aims to bring together sociocultural theory, social media analysis, and interviews to better understand the dynamics of harmful humour online in Australia. It will work with users, community leaders and industry stakeholders to evaluate current platform and policy responses and how they could be improved. The anticipated outcomes include theoretical advances, workable principles for better content moderation processes that reduce harm without restricting healthy expression, and evidence-based contributions to debates on online safety regulation.
