Abstract:
In this report, on Secure (a women's safety device), the need for creating a
design solution for female safety in Pakistan, especially during travel, is being
addressed. Here we take in account of the rate of violence against women and
how this has an adverse effect on their confidence, cognitive abilities and work
place opportunities. With the boom in female empowerment, many areas of
women safety have been tackled worldwide but very few implemented in
Pakistan. A few of the reasons behind this issue being unresolved is because
of the lack of awareness here which will also be discussed further in the paper.
The project discussed here aims to generate a product and a system which
helps in enabling women in Pakistan to be more independent and confident in
life, to travel with ease and always allow them to ensure that a bad feeling
never turns into a dangerous situation.
