International Anti-Street Harassment week begins today, and goes through April 5th 2014.

A program by Stop Street Harassment, Meet Us On the Street was designed to raise awareness about the issue of gender based street harassment.

There are several co-sponsors who participate in this initiative internationally, and Notes from an Aspiring Humanitarian is one of them. I’ll be posting a note each day this week concerning the issue of gender based street harassment.
