Our pilot Safe Public Spaces Mentoring Program Sites in Afghanistan, Cameroon, and Chicago, USA, are about two weeks into their anti-street harassment projects and are hard at work!
In Kabul, Afghanistan, the leadership duo of Masooma and Ali have begun giving workshops on street harassment in local schools. On Friday, they gave a workshop at Star Educational Society and there was a large turnout despite the Ramadan holiday.
In Buea, Cameroon, team leader Zoneziwoh is collecting people’s street harassment stories and experiences in preparation for creating a five-hour seminar in a few weeks.
In Chicago, USA, team leader Phaydra is working with local activists to finalize the first story-board for the first of three short films about street harassment. They will film the first one during the week of Aug. 10.
