The purpose of this academic project is to help the community to understand the impact of the social issue called "Catcalls". Catcalling is a way of sexual harassment that is usually against women in the streets.
The two main objectives of this project are:
To make people aware of the impact that catcalls can have on women who are the ones most affected in the streets.
To know how catcalls affect women from a different social perspective and also to know the issue of catcalls from a man's perspective.
