Connecting to the UN SDGs

VESTA Social Innovation Technologies is a social enterprise working at the intersection of gender-based violence, technology and access to justice. VESTA is on a mission to end rape culture. We are harnessing the power of community and technology to lower the barriers to reporting, and to increasing and equalizing access to resources. Our vision is that by ensuring individuals have agency, choice and equal treatment under the law, systemic change can and will occur. We have a theory of change that hypothesizes low reporting rates in sexual violence cases is a complex and multifactorial problem. Low rating rates block effective collection of data, encourages individuals to remain silent and limits innovation, funding, and services to support survivors. We align with UN SDGs 3, 5, 11 and 16 but we require assistance to help us effectively communicate that to our stakeholders.
