YourWalk: Safer Routes for a Hotter City

PR Campaign
Monday 21st September, 2026

Monash University’s XYX Lab, CrowdLab and the City of Casey trialled YourWalk, an app that maps more comfortable daytime and safer nighttime walking routes for women and vulnerable people. By linking shade, tree cover, lighting, footpaths and public toilets, the project turned climate adaptation and women’s safety into a practical urban-navigation story.

Why it worked: It fused climate-driven night‑economy data with council lighting/shade maps to produce a usable app journalists could test on real streets.

The lesson: Consider pairing a looming macro shift with municipal datasets to build a simple tool reporters can trial and map in their city.

FAQs

What is this?

Every day, brands launch PR campaigns and the media covers them. We scan lots of different news sources and use AI to spot the campaigns behind the stories, and show you which ones are getting the most traction right now. Think of it as a live leaderboard of what's working in PR.

Where does the data come from?

Finchling is a news monitoring tool that analyses lots of news from across the internet.

Does this track sponsored posts, or is it earned media only?

It's built to only track earned media - we use AI to filter out anything that we think is a sponsored placement.

What does "ranked by coverage" mean?

It's ranked by the volume of coverage that talks positively about the campaign. We count the outlets covering it, then give a boost to campaigns whose coverage is positive, and those with negative coverage drop down. We're not weighting by outlet size or reach.

Why isn't my campaign listed?

If you've launched a PR campaign recently and it's not included in here, and you think it should be - drop us a note and we'll investigate.
