Plan of measures against sexual harassment on public transport

"The Plan of measures for the prevention of sexual harassment on public transport, approved by the Department of the Vice-Presidency and Digital Policies and Territory, establishes a series of measures and unifies the protocols for action to combat sexual aggression that public transport operators in Catalonia must implement before 2025. The plan of measures includes actions such as the increase in the number of video surveillance cameras, the creation of aid and rescue devices inside the convoys and at stops, the creation of sexual violence attention areas in the main stations, the training of professionals in dealing with sexual violence, the implementation of information and awareness campaigns and the collection of new data through periodic surveys.

The plan has been drawn up with the collaboration of the Department of the Vice-Presidency and Digital Policies and Territory, the Catalan Women's Institute, the Metropolitan Transport Authority, user groups, organisations and operating companies. The previous tasks for the elaboration of the plan of measures include the Survey of Sexual Harassment in Public Transport (EASTP) and a Benchmarking of measures and concrete cases at national and international level for the prevention of sexual harassment in public transport."
