Welcome to the SAVVY SAFETY SISTER’S PARTNERS IN PREVENTION PODCAST
I am your host Carrie Pasquarello of Global Secure Resources. I am here to bring a spotlight to keep you and your family safe and secure. My guest today is Stephenie Rodriguez, Founder, Creator, and CEO, WanderSafe. She will share an overview of the #BETHEBEACON CAMPAIGN.
WanderSafe, in support of the UN Sustainable Development Goals announced the #BetheBeacon initiative to activate citizens, private companies, NGOs, civil agencies, government agencies, and sporting codes, to commit to working together to end gender-based violence in public and private spaces, workplaces and homes in support of the United Nations Day for the Eradication of Violence Against Women, November 25, 2021, kicking off the global 16 Days of Activism.

The WanderSafe Accord (WSA) serves as a unifying agreement grounded in the belief that through conscientious and intentional commitments, we will co-create local and global public and private spaces and digital ecosystems that are fundamentally safe and free from gender-based violence.
- #BeTheBeacon - step up, speak up, report, and bear witness in support of vulnerable members of our community that are at risk, or experiencing gender-based violence.
- Work together to fund and support access to services, such as mental, physical, and sexual health care, post-rape care, and counseling.
- Advocate for inclusive, comprehensive, and long-term strategies, programs, and resources to prevent and eliminate VAWG in public and private spaces prioritizing the most marginalized women and girls
- Improving knowledge and providing guidance on implementing laws, public policies, and restorative programs.
- Amplify the success stories by showcasing effective strategies and interventions to inspire all actors to scale up and scale out evidence-based, gender-responsive initiatives.
