Anti Street Harassment Week
April 3, 2022 @ 1:00 am - April 9, 2022 @ 11:30 pm
Stop Street Harassment is co-hosting Anti Street Harassment Week in partnership with Red Dot Foundation, Chalk Back (CatCalls of NYC) and L’Oreal Paris’ Stand Up Campaign.
In its 12th edition, Anti Street Harassment Week seeks to raise awareness on the harassment women and non-binary people face in public spaces (both physical and virtual), the remedies available to survivors and the need for active bystander intervention. #AntiSHWeek #StopStreetHarassment

The social impact survey revealed that the L’Oréal Paris’ Stand Up Against Street Harassment program has empowered trainees, giving them the tools and power to walk confidently in the streets. Stand Up trainees report that they are now able
to better identify street harassment and feel more prepared to intervene against it than the general population. The survey highlights the incredible power the Stand Up training can have on shifting witness’ attitudes, and safely taking action.
Key findings include:
– 97% of Stand Up trainees feel more empowered to intervene when witnessing street harassment compared to before their Stand Up training.
– More than 9 out of 10 Stand Up trainees are convinced they could do at least one thing to combat street harassment if they were to witness it (v.s 67% in the general population).
– After getting trained, people who experience street harassment personally tend to feel less vulnerable (19%), scared (20%), uncomfortable (46%) and anxious (25%) than when they experienced such a situation before getting trained.
