Abstract

Violence against women is a global problem which has manifested itself in various forms of economic, psychological and physical abuse, with greater visibility nowadays. This project proposes the development and implementation of an innovative wearable technology, as a tool to prevent femicides and promote women's safety in different risk environments, recognizing the need to address gender-based violence and its devastating consequences through prevention, attention, and immediate response. Through this prefeasibility study, the potential of wearable technology will be explored to offer protection and support to women at risk, providing a personal safety tool, which allows promoting a cultural change towards prevention, empowering women and foster a culture of respect, equality and mutual support. The information was obtained from different sources, stakeholders, specialists and knowledgeable individuals, such as government organizations, non-governmental organizations and clothing companies, which allowed for the establishment of statistical tools as support for the research. This degree project aims and hopes to be an element, a tool, a possibility to save lives, protect the dignity, the rights of women and contribute to the construction of safer, more equitable and fair societies for all people.
