Summary
“Safe and Friendly Mexico City for Women and Girls” is a program designed to prevent and address violence against women and girls in Mexico City’s public transport and public spaces. The Program was conceived as part of the execution of a Memorandum of Understanding between Mexico City and UN Women, and Mexico City’s adherence to the “Safe Cities Free of Violence against Women and Girls Global Programme” in March 2015.
The policy design was built upon a diagnosis study funded by UN Women and the Women Institute of Mexico City (Inmujeres CDMX), and conducted by an interdisciplinary team of COLMEX. The study encompassed a research about the uses of and needs for public transport and spaces by women from 15 to 34 years old, the systematization and analysis of violence and insecurity statistics sources, and a geo-referenced analysis of crimes mapped to the public transport network. The program design and implementation include five components: i) Travel safe; ii) Walk safe; iii) Get involved and contribute to your safety; iv) Sensitive and supportive government, and v) Information and cultural change campaigns.
