Sexual harassment is a constant reality that women and girls all over the world have to deal with - from when we walk down the street, to catching a bus, to being at work, to checking our phone. Sexual harassment creates a world where women and girls are hailed as sexual objects, and acts to control, force conformity and to silence. It narrows the spaces where we are able to participate freely and fully as equal members of society, and impacts on our ability to access education and jobs. It can also have a devastating impact on mental and emotional health and well-being.
