Every day when a woman leaves the house, she worries. She worries about getting from one place to another safely. She worries about getting harassed when she walks to work; about being touched inappropriately in a local train or a crowded bus; about being leered at by the rickshaw wala<\/em> through the rear-view mirror; about being taken to a secluded route by a taxi driver. As night approaches, this worry grows and grows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many sexual abuse, assault, and harassment cases occur in situations where women are mobile. Every other day we read about how a woman jumped out of a local train to escape a molester; or was sexually abused in a taxi; or beaten up, assaulted, and thrown out of an auto-rickshaw in Thane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These stories make women feel unsafe \u2013 affecting their ability to go out, work, perform, and progress in society. Over a period of time, these stories, or a few such experiences, even encourage women to stop putting up a fight for their rights. They give in and create a set of restrictions for themselves. This is simply not fair!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is every woman\u2019s right to feel safe when she steps out of the house \u2013 whether she is travelling by foot, in a cab, in a local train, an auto-rickshaw, or on a flight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, this year as part of the 16 DAYS OF ACTIVISM (a global campaign against gender-based violence), we want to talk about #safetyinmobility. How safe are you, as a woman, when you\u2019re travelling, commuting, or even walking on the street? What is being done to protect you?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, this is a chance for all women to share their stories, experiences and insights. Be a part of the campaign by bringing out the issues that you have faced. Let us together demand #safetyinmobility!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
