In 2019, “This is Us” kickstarted their first project focused on empowering girls to reclaim public spaces. We organized public walks, runs, and self-defense workshops for young girls in Karachi. Enabling young girls to confidently and comfortably exist in public spaces is our powerful act of reclaiming these areas. By organizing such activities, we built confidence, raised awareness, and symbolically and physically took back public spaces for girls on our own terms.
