Project Description

Project Description

Shift challenges the normalization of sexual violations like groping, stalking, and voyeurism through an educative seminar that unpacks consent, boundaries, and bystander action. Our reporting app offers victims and allies an anonymous, accessible way to document incidents and seek support. A bold awareness campaign sparks dialogue, calling out everyday behaviors society brushes off. Together, these tools shift mindsets, empower communities, and demand accountability—because no one should have to “just deal with it.”


The image displays a screenshot of a mobile application called "SHIFT," which appears to be a traffic or incident management app. The app interface is divided into several sections. At the top, there are four screenshots labeled "APHOMESCREEN," "CHECKING ROUTES," "SOS MODE," and "REPORTING INCIDENT." Each screenshot shows different views of the app interface, including maps, location data, and reports. The screenshots are labeled with timestamps and display various functionalities such as reporting incidents, viewing incidents, checking routes, and accessing live reporting. The app interface is predominantly white with blue accents for buttons and navigation elements. The screenshots are arranged in a 2x2 grid.



The image shows a black and white booklet titled "SHIFT BOOKLET" with a blue stylized "S" logo in the bottom left corner. Beside it are two blue text boxes with quotes about consent: one reads “Stop” means no, “Turning away means no,” “I don’t want to” means no, “Shoving you away means no,” “Leave me alone” means no, “Passed out means no,” “I’m not ready” means no, “Pushing you away means no,” “I don’t feel like” means no, “Drunk or drugged means no,” “Get away from me” means no, “Screaming means no,” “Don’t mean no,” and another reads “It’ll be our secret, no one will know.” A QR code labeled “Scan QR to watch Tea & Consent video” is visible on the right. The bottom right corner of the booklet has the phrase “Ladki ki na mein ha nahi hoti.”
