Monalisa and the Unsafe Workspaces of NT-DNT Women: A Reflection from the Ground

When Monalisa’s story began circulating, it was painfully familiar.

As someone who has worked closely with NT-DNT communities for years, I have seen how quickly a woman’s dignity can be violated in public spaces, especially when her work exists outside formal structures. Monalisa’s experience echoed what many women from these communities quietly endure.

This BehanBox article captures this issue in greater depth, situating Monalisa’s experience within the larger reality of NT-DNT women’s labour and safety. My words appear there as part of that broader conversation.
