Share your experiences and best safety tips by September 26
At JourneyWoman, we believe that it’s important for women who travel to be informed and empowered about their personal safety. JourneyWoman has been at the forefront of women’s travel safety for more than 30 years. In fact, JourneyWoman founder Evelyn Hannon wrote the Government of Canada’s guide for solo travel for women in 2009.
But times have changed. Today, our safety is being impacted by new technologies, including Artificial Intelligence (AI). To that end, we are inviting you to share your thoughts, concerns and perspectives on women’s safety in a short survey.
The survey will be open for one week only, from September 18 to September 26, 2025.
This survey is multiple choice and will take approximately 10 minutes to complete.
As with our previous surveys, individual responses are confidential, but participants must sign up to verify email addresses and ensure there are no multiple entries. If you have any questions about your privacy, please read our Privacy Policy or contact JourneyWoman CEO Carolyn Ray at [email protected].
Your responses will help us prepare for a very special Women’s Travel Safety webinar on October 21,as well as practical tips and editorial features to better educate women travellers, media and the industry about the changing nature of women’s travel safety.
In addition, we’ll be sharing the best tips from the survey in our new Women’s Safety ebook, which will be published in October 2025.



I appreciate JourneyWoman reaching out for input on womens safety in the age of AI. It’s crucial that women’s voices are heard as technology shapes our travel experiences. The survey timeline is reasonable, and the promise of a dedicated webinar and ebook later this year offers great value. However, I hope the AI aspect goes beyond surface-level concerns and truly explores how algorithms might inadvertently contribute to safety risks or biases. Safety evolves, and understanding the tech dimension is key. Thanks for prioritizing this and offering a platform for women to share their perspectives. Looking forward to seeing the results and the resources shared!
