What is Safe Spaces Act Assessment?

We assess and document the psychological effects of gender-based sexual harassment to support complaints and proceedings under the Safe Spaces Act.

The law behind it — RA 11313

RA 11313 is the Safe Spaces Act of 2019, sometimes called the “Bawal Bastos” law. It protects everyone from gender-based sexual harassment.

It covers harassment in many settings: streets and public spaces, online, and in workplaces and schools. Examples include catcalling, wolf-whistling, unwanted sexual remarks and jokes, stalking, persistent unwanted advances, and online sexual harassment.

The law makes clear that these acts are not harmless — they can cause real emotional and psychological harm.

How we help

  • Assess and document the psychological impact of the harassment
  • Prepare reports for complaints, workplace, school, or court proceedings
  • Support complainants with sensitivity and respect
