Get Heard is a Moroccan initiative that focuses on women protection rights and laws and helps to spread their stories around the world. It is implemented by YES (Youth Empowerment Society), in partnership with national and international educational institutions. The initiative aims to introduce girls and women in different Moroccan cities to national and international laws and regulations that protect them from sexual harassment, violence and extortion. The project also teaches them the basic skills and techniques required to produce their own podcasts and have an online voice to tell their stories. To date, 120 women have benefited from the training provided on the platform.
