In Algeiba, we developed a mobile app to prevent violence incidents and to accompany the victims and their circle.
Why an App on
gender-based violence?
Gender-based violence is a serious violation of human rights. Its impact can have an immediate or long reach and it includes many physical, sexual, psychological and even lethal consequences for their victims. It adversely affects the wellbeing of persons and it prevents them from full participation in society. Apart from having negative consequences for the victims, it also affects the victim’s family, community and country.
Gender-based violence is a type of physical or psychological violence exerted against any person or group of persons because of their sexual orientation or identity, sex or gender that adversely impacts their identity and social, physical or economic wellbeing. According to the United Nations, the term is used to distinguish common violence from the one directed to individuals or groups based on their gender.
