Mrs SA first princess and founder of The Red Wings Project, Olwethu Leshabane, has collaborated with India’s SafeCity to help reduce the high rape and sexual harassment rates in South Africa.
By bringing SafeCity to South Africa, through The Red Wings Project, Leshabane will crowdsource stories of sexual harassment and violence in public spaces. This data, which maybe anonymous, will then be aggregated as hot spots on a map, indicating trends. The idea is to make this data useful for individuals, local communities and local administration to identify factors that lead to violence and work on strategies for solutions.
