NEW YORK: The founder of the #MeToo movement marked its third anniversary on Oct 15 by launching an online platform to fight sexual violence, hoping to expand the reach of the campaign against harassment and assault.

The digital platform, called “‘me too’. Act Too”, will act like a search engine, giving users personalised options to donate, participate or otherwise get involved in efforts to end sexual violence, said Tarana Burke, creator of the #MeToo hashtag.
