Manage episode 431773015 series 3399993
In the first episode of our sixth series, we talk with Dr. Kalpana Viswanath. She is the Co-founder and CEO of Safetipin, a social enterprise that uses technology and apps to collect data for the safe movement of women in urban spaces and towards gender responsive urban systems.
We talk how harassment, violence and the burden of care impact women's access to transport, work, education and leisure. How technology is used to gather data to create safer transport networks around cities and what needs to be done by local and national governments and international NGOs and donors to better serve all transport users.
