City of Cologne offers women free cab vouchers to combat harassment | DW News

From DW News.

Many women in Germany say they feel much less safe than men in public spaces at night. They fear being harassed or assaulted by men. That is why the city of Cologne is now offering free cab vouchers to women and those with the gender entry ‘diverse.’ The city describes the measure as "targeted action against a specific danger that particularly affects women". A total of 1,500 vouchers worth 10 euros each are available. An eligible person can receive a maximum of three vouchers for the trial period until August 2025. What do you think of this move?
