WEACT Team – Technovation Girls 2020

Hundreds of women live in fear for their lives every day and often feel there is no escape from their abusive situations.

This has been the motivation behind a new app called ‘WeAct’ which has been developed to help Israeli women who are victims of domestic abuse.

The app is the brainchild of an inspiring team of 16-year-old female students from Aloney Yitzchak youth village who have entered their app into an international competition for the best use of technology to solve a social problem.

We are incredibly proud of these young women whose goal is to help prevent future violence and save lives. Moreover, the app has made it to the semi-final stage of the contest – the only team from Israel to make it this far.

We’ll keep you informed of their progress but invite you to now watch this short video about the project!
