So proud of the parents who care about their daughters’ safety and signed them up for our workshops and classes! ❤️🦁
It is a pity that not all parents see it this way. Yet, there are always excuses not to participate. Unbelievable. This should be a top priority for all women and all parents who have daughters.
The reality in our capital city is alarming:
* 83% of young women and girls experience street harassment, including being followed, yelled at, or inappropriately touched.
* 85% of Amsterdam women actively avoid certain parks, tunnels, and streets after dark because they feel unsafe.
* 63% of these young women say this harassment actively restricts their freedom of movement, making them change their routes or avoid public spaces altogether.
* 50% of all women in Amsterdam have experienced general feelings of unsafety over the past year, compared to just 31% of men.
Our classes are not a luxury; they are a necessity. Safety and self-defense training build the resilience and awareness our girls need right now. PERIOD.🧐
