Our focus is to try and improve lighting in public spaces in the city. Lighting is a key factor in shaping women's perceptions of safety
The initiative will provide a platform for all stakeholders to discuss our goal of improving safety standards, to start a conversation about safety of women in the country
It will also highlight various interventions and solutions that help to make women safe and put the spotlight on what more can be done.
The campaign will accentuate the need for Safety to be a shared responsibility
The need for gender sensitization and how law enforcement and civil society through checks and education can try and make women safer
