Vital Voices Global Mentoring Walk

On 29th June, Safecity hosted the Vital Voices Global Mentoring Walk in Mumbai, India at JW Marriott Mumbai Sahar, supported by Shethepeople. The Vital Voices Mentoring Walk is a global tradition and we were thrilled to host it for the second time. Our Outreach Partner was Reboot Network which is a career community for women and venue partner was JW Marriott Sahar.

The mentors were amazing and accomplished women from The US Consulate Mumbai, Private, Media and Development sectors and others who have been path breakers in their own right. The day began with a welcome note by Supreet K Singh, our Director and COO followed by the key note address by Ms. Jennifer Larson from the U.S. Consulate General Mumbai who spoke about the importance of encouraging women to keeping moving forward.

About 20 pairs of Mentors and Mentees got a chance to get to know each other and plan future sessions. You can read more about it here and also watch Jessica Xalxo as she speaks of her experience being part of the first walk.

What followed was a fun crafts activity on recycling waste to create wonderful art! Read more about it here.

Creating Awareness about Child Sexual Abuse in Patna

To expand the work of Safecity in Patna, Bihar, Naina Jha conducted a workshop creating awareness about Child Sexual Abuse on 23rd June at S R Vidyapeeth School in Patna for the students of Standard 5. You can read more about it here.

After the session, the students were able to define and recognize abuse, threats and bribery. They learned how abuse could affect them, how to protect themselves from abuse and whom to approach if something happened to them. The highlight of the session was when every student promised to share their learning with their parents and especially, their friends, to create awareness about the same.”

News from Ahmedabad

While we are talking about education and safety on our Twitter handle @pinthecreep, Noorjahan, our Program and Outreach Officer in Ahmedabad is talking about it amongst the people.

At a meeting yesterday with the women of Behrampura, they spoke about the new academic year which will soon begin. The schools in Behrampura have classes for students from Standard 1 to 8. The women spoke about school re-opening and new admissions. Noorjahan created awareness among them about Right to Education (RTE), along with measures in which they can keep their area safe as well as their children.

They plan to conduct a safety audit of the area and submit a report of the same to school so that they can work hand-in-hand in making education safer for children.

Safecity Emerging Leaders

Safecity is celebrating the journey of people who have emerged as leaders as our campaigns progressed in their communities through our blog series “Safecity Emerging Leaders”. Read the inspiring stories of these individuals who are passionate about making their neighbourhoods safer with Safecity and have taken action in their own special ways.

Read this month’s Emerging Leader Krupa’s story on our blog here.

When we asked Krupa about her experience doing an internship with Safecity, this is what she had to say –

“I had never imagined that I would learn so much from my very first internship. I got a chance to express my ideas and opinions about issues and working with the team gradually made me feel more inspired to do something for society. It gave me an identity at the age of 19 and being a part of social work helped boost my confidence.”

We have several opportunities for you to volunteer and take action. Do check our website.

Know Our Team

Know Our Team is a new blog series that attempts to bring to you the stories of our team, share our experiences, why we do what we do and special moments that have left an indelible mark in each of our lives.

Read this month’s blog by our Monitoring and Evaluation Officer, Vihang Jumle, who writes about his experience with Safecity and his journey with us so far here.

“I joined Safecity with the hope that my analytical skills would help make our society a safer place to live indirectly if directly wasn’t possible. Seeing real work in action at Safecity, I decided to take up a more challenging role which was to evaluate and ensure that Safecity created serious impact in the daily lives of children and women.”

We are looking for a Program and Outreach Officer for Delhi and Bangalore. Do send your CV to info@reddotfoundation.org

TweetChats

Through our tweetchats we are trying to facilitate important conversations around various issues related to gender in general and women’s issues in particular.

Our curators this month conducted four TweetChats around the issue of Education and Safety, taking into account the role that educational institutions play in creating a safe learning environment for their students, issues like sanitation, harassment, bullying, commuting to and from places of education, the role of the Government and Child Sexual Abuse were also discussed. We also had a Tweetchat talking about Child Labour and how we can end it conducted by Pratham Council for Vulnerable Children (PCVC) on 12th June- World Day against Child Labour.

Check out the storified tweetchats here- Making Schools Safer for ChildrenStop Child LabourHow does safety impact access to education and Addressing Child Sexual Abuse.
