Safecity Monthly Newsletter : November 2017

 

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.

Secona Security Consultants’ Summit

Annual Report- 2016-2017

Red Dot Foundation (Safecity)’s Annual Report for the year 2016-17 is out. It has been a busy and eventful year for us. Do have a read, send us your thoughts and contributions are always welcome.

Railway Station Safety Audits

Safecity conducted Safety Audits at three railway stations in the month of November. The objective of our audits is to assess the railway stations from the angle of safety and existing infrastructure. We also undertake conversations with commuters of all genders at the stations to understand the occurrence of sexual harassment at these stations. We are building an understanding of the needs of people and infrastructure for safer public transport (railways). The report will be available next month.

Visit to the Godrej Gender Resource Centre (GRC) in Ahmedabad 

Ashwini Syed, Tania Echaporia and Noorjahan Ansari visited three communities in Ahmedabad on 3rd and 4th Nov. They visited the GRC community centre on the first day and then proceeded to meet families, predominantly Muslims,  located near the centre. They spoke about Safecity, safety and security in general and stressed on the importance of reporting sexual harassment via our website or Mobile App. The second session was with women at the GRC centre where many of them shared  their experiences of sexual harassment. The third session was at Chapee Rog Community where they met a group of 15 young girls and some women. Since they were previously acquainted with them our team members suggested that they make groups and demonstrate a play, a song or a skit on what they had learned through previous sessions. It was a great experience for both, our team members as well as the women. We thank Godrej Consumer Products for this opportunity.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

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 Sai Pratiksha Balaji’s story on our blog here.

Pratiksha Balaji has done 4 internships with Safecity and is now leading a team of her own. When we asked Pratiksha about her experience doing an internship with Safecity, this is what she had to say –

“This internship has helped me grow personally as well as given me the satisfaction that I am doing something good.  It had been a wonderful experience to be part of this organisation and surely helped me a lot. I know for sure this experience with Safecity will help me greatly in future and I am looking forward to working with them again.”

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 Bailey Gent, who writes about her experience with Safecity’s Denver branch and her journey with us so far here.

“Bailey is passionate about educating people about the influence interpersonal and sexual violence has on our society. It is an excellent and important step to identify and acknowledge the issue, the next important step is the action steps. For this reason, allowing an avenue for reporting is critically important. Also focusing on prevention based education is important while being reactive to assault and harassment issues is important through reporting. Ultimately one day there will hopefully be less need to report because we have done well enough on educating.”

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