Finemchi is an innovative new women's safety app, designed by Moroccan entrepreneur Safaa El Jazouli, that is designed to help battle sexual harassment by making it easier for women to plan their outings and social activities by taking advantage of information on which places are safe and female-friendly.
The Finemchi women's safety app, which is already available for download on Google Play, allows users to add restaurants and public establishments to the app and rate them based on their personal experiences. The app also offers phone numbers and contact information for police stations near each establishment, making it easier for women to call for help if needed.
This unique app aims to battle the scourge of sexual harassment by drawing on the power of crowdsourcing and taking into account the feedback of women, thereby allowing women to help their peers to evade high-risk establishments, while forcing establishments to clean up their act and keep their clientele under control.
