Safehouse Network
MEDIACORP YOUNG CREATIVES COMPETITION 2017 (CYBER)
The silence of family violence is perpetuated because of two main challenges.
Neighbours see domestic violence as a private matter and are unsure about when and how to intervene.
Victims find it hard to call for help in a safe and discreet way.
Insight
Culturally, people are unwilling to step in as family violence is confined within the four walls of a home.
Idea
Wireless tech enables us to work around and break down these physical boundaries. What if home WiFi networks can be a way for neighbours to connect and offer aid to victims?
