The Department of Justice has 'swiped right' to combat sexual violence and the sharing of intimate images by spending more than €30,000 on Tinder advertising in the past year.

The department made use of the online dating and networking app as part of its No Excuses national awareness campaign on sexual harassment and sexual violence.
