Universities & NGOs

Across campuses and community spaces, unsafe experiences are rarely reported through official channels. The process is often too intimidating, too complicated, or simply not trusted. But that doesn’t mean these experiences aren’t happening — it means we need a better way to hear about them.

Bånded gives your community a safer, simpler way to speak up.

Whether it's street harassment, intimidation, or feeling unsafe on the way to class, users can report what happened in real time — anonymously or with their name — and choose whether to share with their peers, with you, or both.

• Create an accessible reporting space that lowers the threshold for disclosure
   
• Support vulnerable groups like women, LGBTQ+ students, and migrants
   
• Track patterns of street or campus harassment that don’t make it into official records
   
• Visualize unsafe areas on or around campus to inform policies, awareness campaigns, and prevention strategies
   

Show students and community members that their voices are heard — even if they don’t want to file a formal complaint

As part of the EU METACITIES project, we’re implementing Bånded at selected university campuses and urban zones to:

• Collect lived-experience data during smart city pilot phases

• Evaluate inclusion, comfort, and safety through real-time community feedback 

• Help institutions respond with more targeted interventions and safer environments

Safety doesn’t just live in policy. It lives in perception, trust, and how supported someone feels when something goes wrong. With Bånded, you offer a human, flexible layer of reporting — while gaining the insight to create real change.
