Sometime ago, a group of teenagers conducted a safety audit of Nizamuddin Basti in New Delhi. Using an app, they identified dark spots, mounds of construction debris and malfunctioning streetlights — all of which contributed in making the area unsafe for young women to move around freely.

TYPF has audited government programmes on reproductive health to see how youth-friendly they are. Audit completed, they presented the findings to the elders in the community. The results were instant and positive, and some of the findings of the safety audit were immediately addressed.
