This training's main objective is to introduce to gender and its relevance for urban mobility planning

  • Developed by: Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit
  • Level of Expertise: Fundamental
  • Language: English
  • Keywords: Gender, Planning
  • Time (minimum): 1h

Description

This training set structurally approaches the correlation between gender and mobility planning. In particular, the definition, relevant concepts, and fundamental approach to gender are presented, followed by a thorough examination of gender responsiveness's political relevance, focusing on the mobility planning context. While mobility experiences are undeniably not gender-neutral, this issue has been consistently overlooked in mobility planning. As a result, there is a rising demand to integrate a gender perspective into different content of mobility policies. Moreover, this training set utilises practical examples and interactive activities to emphasise the relevance of gender for mobility further.

Training Objectives

  • Provide basic knowledge of what gender is and what it is not
  • Discuss the broader context of diversity
  • Get participants familiar with key approaches to gender
  • Develop the link between mobility and gender

  • Learn about the political relevance of gender-responsiveness

Indicative agenda

  1. Key definition of gender and gender mainstreaming approach
  2. Dimensions of gender and mobility
  3. The political context of including gender in mobility planning
