New Zealand, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has announced that New Zealand and France will lead global efforts to try to end the use of social media to organise and promote terrorism.
The announcement comes in the wake of the 15 March Christchurch terror attacks.
Ardern and French President Emmanuel Macron will lead a meeting in Paris on 15 May, that will bring together other world leaders and tech companies.
Leaders and the chief executives of tech companies will be asked to agree to a pledge called the 'Christchurch Call' to eliminate terrorist and violent extremist content online.
