To empower individuals through innovative self-defense tools that prioritize safety and confidence.
Our Mission
Statistically Speaking:
Over 1 in 3 women worldwide (about 35%) have experienced physical and/or sexual violence in their lifetime, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).
Only 40% of survivors report rape to authorities, leaving a vast majority of incidents unreported.
Sub-Saharan Africa is identified as a high-prevalence region for sexual violence, exacerbated by systemic issues such as weak law enforcement, stigma, and poverty.
In South Africa alone, reports estimate that a woman is raped every 26 seconds (Interpol, UN) which is over 3000 sexual assaults per day.
The Hidden Reality of the Unreported and Unprosecuted
Survivors of rape often do not report incidents due to:
Fear of stigma and societal shame.
Mistrust in law enforcement and the judicial system.
Fear of retaliation by perpetrators.
Even worse:
Less than 5% of reported rape cases worldwide lead to successful prosecution and punishment of perpetrators (UNESCO, United Nations).
The ‘rule of law’ states:
the punishment cannot exceed the crime.
The pain, suffering, humiliation, and embarrassment
created by IDENAx does not exceed
the pain, suffering, humiliation, and embarrassment
the rapist subjects their victim to.
IDENAx is more than a deterrent
it is a statement of justice and empowerment.
We seek is a world where everyone feels safe and empowered.
