WHAT IS SAFETIPIN?

Safetipin is a social organisation working with a wide range of urban stakeholders including governments to make public spaces safer and more inclusive for women. We collect data using our 3 mobile phone applications (My Safetipin, which is available on the app store and play store; Safetipin Nite and Safetipin Site) and present this to relevant stakeholders with recommendations. We also generate a safety score based on the data we collect and provide it in the My Safetipin app for users to make safe and informed decisions about their mobility.

Impact

The safety mapping of Delhi has been used to improve lighting at more than 5000 spots in the city.

Data has been collected in Bhopal to understand women’s mobility patterns in a Indian tier 2 city.

Safetipin data has led to more women using the bike paths after dark in the city.

MY SAFETIPIN APP

My Safetipin is a personal safety app that helps you make safer decisions about your mobility, based on the safety score of an area. The app is free for all and uses crowd-sourcing to collect data. At the core of the app, we have the Safety Audit which is a tool to analyse a given area based on the physical and social infrastructure parameters. A user can contribute to a better understanding of their city by doing a Safety Audit through the app.

The app has many other features- Tracking, Safest Route and Nearby Places.
