Online Sexual Harms in Singapore (OSHSG) is an independent, Singapore-based research project that investigates the prevalence, dominant forms, and normalization of online sexual harms on a national scale through surveys and interviews.

We are committed to advancing understanding of technology-facilitated sexual violence (TFSV) and promoting safer environments on- and offline in Singapore by bridging research with policy and practice to address online sexual harms.

Our goal for this project encompasses improving outreach, support resources, and policies and practices related to online sexual harms in Singapore.

We are also the research team behind CASMIDA (Campus Sexual Misconduct in the Digital Age), an earlier independent research project that sought to understand the ways in which digital technologies, such as social media, online platforms, and mobile applications, shape and are shaped by “sexual misconduct” in campus settings in Singapore.

Our current research project is supported by the Ministry of Education, Singapore under its Social Science Research Council through a Social Science and Humanities Research Fellowship (SSHRF) awarded to Michelle H. S. Ho, Principal Investigator of OSHSG.
