Safecity Monthly Update – February 2016

 

Safecity is growing exponentially and we’re constantly working hard to translate our vision to reality. Because we don’t want you to miss out on our work, we’ve decided to put together a monthly column to tell you about what we’ve been up to.  You can sign up for our newsletter here.

February was an exciting month for us with lots of activities and new milestones. Read on to see what we’ve been doing.

Jessica with other participants during our My Access Campaign

She writes poignantly about her experience on working with Safecity as a blogger – “As for blogging, it was a relief to be able to put my voice out into the World and speak about issues that have deeply troubled me. I felt liberated and empowered, something that I had never felt before.”

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.

Report Sexual Violence in public Spaces on Safecity

We are documenting stories of sexual violence in public spaces through crowdsourced data and tech.  This indicates location based trends that are visualized on a map as hotspots.

Some of the recent reports we have received are deeply troubling….

  • Sexual abuse by the driver of Seabird Tourist Buses on Goa Bangalore route – “When the bus reached Anand Rao Circle, morning around 8.40 am in an attempt to wake me up (I was sleeping on last single upper seat), the driver grabbed my breast. I woke up with a shock and didn’t realise what had happened, he then informed me we have reached the last stop. I collected my bags & left the bus, still in a state of sleep & shock.”
  • Om Sai Beach Huts in Goa is not safe for female solo travellers – While the owner was drunk he told me that he and the staff were watching me to see if I was sleeping with my friend. (who was there and staying in a seperate room)  And that he called them to check what we were doing, and that the ENTIRE STAFF was giving him information about my activities and whereabouts.What bothers me most is NOT that he hit on me eventually – but that he and your staff were watching me and they were reporting to you what I was doing. That does not make me feel safe, in fact, because of this I have many doubts about the overall safety of the place. The hut and bathroom had holes in the walls where someone could see inside. I overlooked them, but now I doubt that someone was watching me while I slept and changed clothes and other things which require privacy.

If you or anyone you know has experienced sexual violence in public spaces, please report on www.maps.safecity.in.

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 held two tweetchats, one on Sexism in pop culture and our daily life and the second discussing Women’s Health and Endometriosis Awareness.

Check out the storified tweetchats on our blog here and here.

One of our Twitter curators – Prerna who hosted a discussion on Endometriosis on @pinthecreep shared her experience with us saying – “Had a very nice time curating it, thanks for the opportunity. Hope you liked the tweetchat and it was something different from the regular. Stay in touch :)”
