Sisters campaign against gender-based street harassment
British sisters Maya and Gemma want to make gender-based street harassment illegal. They founded the Our Streets Now campaign and collect stories of public harassment.
The sisters have been inspired following the introduction of a new law in France that makes street harassment illegal. Offenders can be issued with on-the-spot fines.
But there are concerns in France that these laws still don't go far enough.
