    The research project on "Sexual street harassment and the perception of women" in students of the Faculty of Jurisprudence and Social Sciences, represents a social problem that is based on uncomfortable, offensive and sexual behaviors that can be explicitly and implicitly executed by strangers who are commonly male. These experiences that the students live day by day when transiting in public spaces have caused effects in their personal lives, autonomy and participation in public life. The general objective of the research is to determine the influence of sexual street harassment in the perception of female students of the Faculty of Jurisprudence and Social Sciences, also, three specific objectives were proposed, the first is to know the reactions of female students to situations of sexual street harassment; the second is to describe the various forms of sexual street harassment and finally identify the modification of women's behaviors when they perceive insecurity in public spaces. The research is descriptive and correlational, and its methodology is quantitative, using as an instrument a survey created and validated by experts, which was applied to collect information on the two variables under study "sexual street harassment" and "women's perception".
