SHEcure is designed to enhance women's safety by combining AI-powered risk assessment with real-time emergency features.
🛡️ SHEcure – A Women's Safety Web App
SHEcure is a web-based application built with the mission of making the world a safer place for women. It empowers users to take immediate action during distressing situations through quick and accessible emergency reporting.
With SHEcure, safety is no longer delayed by hesitation or complicated systems — a few simple clicks are all it takes to report an incident and seek help.
🚨 The Problem It Solves
Women's safety continues to be a major concern across the world. In many cases of harassment, assault, or unsafe public spaces, timely reporting and response can make a life-saving difference.
Unfortunately, traditional systems are often slow, inaccessible, or intimidating. Many victims are unable to reach out for help due to fear, social pressure, or lack of awareness.
SHEcure bridges this gap by providing:
- A user-friendly web interface to quickly raise an SOS or file a report.
- A backend system to store and manage incident reports securely.
- A base platform that can later integrate with advanced features like real-time location tracking, emergency contact notifications, and AI-driven risk assessments.
✅ Use Cases
- A woman walking alone at night feels unsafe and wants to quickly report her location and alert authorities.
- In case of a public incident (harassment, stalking, etc.), a witness or victim can anonymously submit a report.
- NGOs and women’s safety groups can use the platform to track and analyze safety trends in specific regions.
- Police departments or civic authorities can access incident logs to make smarter decisions about surveillance and patrol.
🔧 Features Implemented (Hackathon Version)
- 🛠️ Backend built with Django and SQLite.
- 📄 Functional emergency report submission form.
- 💾 Automatic population of test data using populate_db.py for demo purposes.
- 🖥️ Static files and basic UI for a seamless user experience.
- 📂 Modular codebase ready for integration with external APIs (for SMS alerts, maps, etc.).
🌱 Future Enhancements
- 🌍 Real-time geolocation tracking using HTML5 + Google Maps API.
- 📩 Automatic SMS or WhatsApp alerts to registered emergency contacts.
- 👮 Admin panel for authorities to monitor, respond, and resolve reports.
- 🔒 User authentication system for secure logins and report history tracking.
- 📊 Analytics dashboard for NGOs and researchers to study trends.
💡 Vision
Our goal is to make SHEcure a part of every woman’s digital toolkit. Safety should never be optional — and with SHEcure, we aim to create a space where help is always just a click away.
This hackathon version is our MVP (Minimum Viable Product) — and with further development, we believe SHEcure can scale to real-world impact in schools, universities, corporate zones, and public spaces.

🙌 Made with passion during a 2-day hackathon 🚀
🗓️ Day 1 – Ideation & Setup Finalized the idea for SHEcure, a women's safety app focused on quick emergency reporting and response. Chose Django as the web framework and set up the base project with routing, database, and app structure. Designed the data models for reporting incidents and storing emergency details. Created basic UI layouts for the homepage and report submission form. 🛠️ Day 2 – Core Functionality & Polish Implemented the emergency report form with backend integration to store data securely in the database. Connected static files (CSS, images, etc.) for a better user interface. Added a test script (populate_db.py) to pre-load data for demo purposes. Performed testing and debugging of key flows — form submission, navigation, and data storage. Finalized UI components to ensure a smooth and intuitive user experience. 🔜 Next Steps (Post-Hackathon Plans) Integrate real-time location tracking and emergency contact notifications. Implement user authentication for added security. Host the platform online for easier access and feedback.
