The transport authority in London is launching training sessions to empower passengers to act as active bystanders in cases of harassment or discrimination on public transport. The sessions, facilitated by experts from Protection Approaches, are a response to an increase in reported sexual offenses, which Transport for London (TfL) views positively as more people are engaging with their reporting mechanism. This initiative aligns with TfL's zero-tolerance policy towards hate crimes and aims to equip Londoners with the knowledge and skills needed to intervene safely when they witness harassment situations.
The Transport Authority announced training sessions aimed at empowering passengers to intervene during harassment incidents, promoting a safer public transport environment in London.
TfL highlighted an uptick in reported sexual offences as evidence that awareness and reporting campaigns are effective, showcasing its commitment to tackling abuse on networks.
