Author(s):
Abstract:
The present article deals with the issue of security of women in cities. It therefore addresses general factors of women>s vulnerabilities against the crimes and then analyzes official and unofficial ways to prevent them. Emphasis is then placed on further efficiency of the non-official organizations in reducing insecurity and violence against women, and practical mechanisms are examined.O ne of the mechanisms is to establish precinct groups to encounter with insecurity of women and reduce their vulnerability. Eventually, through reviewing successful experiences of other countries such as Britain in this area, potentiality for establishment of precinct groups for women>s security in mosques, establishment of centers to support women victims (or those at risk) at this religious institution and the benefit of close relations between neighbors and residents of a particular precinct has been emphasized. The article then points to the role of these groups in conveying women>s security problems to the city managers, thus making useful changes in the public places and utilities.
