Kawach: Your Safety Shield on the Streets

Due to the alarming rise in violence against women in India, public spaces have become less safe for women, making it important to take steps towards enhancing personal safety. Kawach, our app for women's safety, aims to help mitigate this problem by empowering women to feel confident and secure while on the go.

PROCESS BRIEF

After gaining insights into the existing system & pain points experienced by women while commuting, we propose a service design that aims to address emergency needs of women. By identifying gaps & opportunities within the system, we focus on redefining women's safety on the streets.
