The term sexual harassment covers a wide range of behaviors ranging from verbal assaults to sexual abuse and sexual assault.Sexual harassment can happen in different contexts, not following a specific dynamic.People of all genders can experience sexual harassment, but we noticed that the frequency is higher in women.Thus, as female high school students in the city of São Gonçalo, based on the encouragement of our Geography teacher and a subject at ``Escola Firjan SESI São Gonçalo``, we developed a project aimed at the safety of girls and women in our city.We realize that many of us suffer harassment, violence or sexual embarrassment in our lives and, as a result, we develop a fear of moving around our city.The project consists of an app and a digital watch that, using information sources from the police and other women, creates safe routes, support networks and alerts for women.
