💜 Today is Purple Friday, a reminder that everyone has the right to feel safe and be themselves. Research shows that LGBTQIA+ individuals disproportionately experience street harassment. At Fairspace, we empower communities to create safer public spaces using the 5Ds of bystander intervention: Distract 💬, Delegate 🤝, Document 📹, Delay ⏳, and Direct ✋. Together, we can make a difference and stand up against harassment in all its forms. #DoeMeeMet5D #Paarsevrijdag #purplefriday

✊ Day 11 of 16 Days Against Gender-Based Violence: Online gender-based violence affects many, but together we can make a difference.
