Safety

In recent years, there has been a growing emphasis on ensuring the safety and empowerment of women in various spheres of life, including the corporate world. Recognizing the importance of creating a safe and inclusive work environment, companies around the world are taking proactive measures to address issues related to women’s safety and well-being.

The launch of the MyAmbar app by Vodafone Idea Foundation, in collaboration with Nasscom Foundation, Sayfty Trust, and UN Women, aims to address the safety and empowerment of women in India. The app, available in English and Hindi, offers several features to provide women with easy access to key helpline numbers and service providers across the country.

One of the app’s notable features is a step-by-step risk assessment tool that guides women through various ways of dealing with their current situation. It aims to assist them by offering information and support services tailored to their needs. Additionally, the app includes an extensive service directory, enabling users to connect with legal and counseling services with just a click.

The MyAmbar app is designed to help women understand gender-based violence, access support services, and create a safe space for survivors and high-risk victims to report complaints and seek help without judgment or bias. The goal is to provide women in distress with information, assistance, and support through a unified platform.

P Balaji, Chief Regulatory and Corporate Affairs Officer at Vodafone Idea, highlighted that the MyAmbar app is devised to assist women in distress by facilitating information and access to support, all within a single platform. This reflects the app’s aim to provide comprehensive help and education while empowering women in need.
