Safe cities: improving safety, mobility and public services for vulnerable women and girls in DRC (360G-CR-735695)
Cities can be threatening and violent places the world over – and for women this is especially true. In the DRC, a country with a long recent history of war, where violence is part of life, things are worse. And for women market gardeners and street vendors who travel early or after dark, the risks of sexual and physical violence, robbery and theft are extreme.This project will work in communities to change underlying attitudes; build skills and confidence of women; and persuade groups like the police and local authorities to make practical changes – leading to long term change. As one of 14 projects in an international ‘Safer Cities’ initiative the project will share learning and ideas widely.
