All You Need To Know About  ” What is The 97 Percent ”

Based on an investigation by the United Nations entity for gender equality and the empowerment of women, a report was initiated in March 2021 disclosing 97 percent of women in the United Kingdom between the age of 18 to 24 are the victims of sexual harassment in public places.  

According to the reports over 45 percent of the women indicated a lack of trust expressing the fact they didn’t believe that reporting the authority would make any difference.

The alarming percentage is a factor of concern among everyone which is somehow transmitted to a digital platform enabling females all over the world sharing their stories, experiences, and traumas. The spaces where women experienced sexual harassment were mostly public places including streets, parks, transportation, clubs, game zones, or events.

The survey was released after the sudden disappearance and tragic murder case of Sarah Everard, a 33-year-old woman who was abruptly slaughtered. Sarah disappeared on March 3rd from Clapham, London while walking home from a friend’s house. A week later her body was found from a woodland area of Kent and a police officer was taken under custody and charged for her death.

After the gigantic action took all over social media by various females to express, aware, and stand with each other, UK govt bodies have initiated a ‘Safe Spaces Now’ Campaign initiating safe and empowering public spaces for women. The stories and experiences from over the country have been recorded and collected and hopefully soon action would be taken.
