FEM. DES. Network’s Post

Know more about our "Gender-Equal Cities Program" of FEM. DES. Network in Cities, The Gendered City entails. #FeministWalkingTours that allow #women* to explore city spaces critically, identifying areas where urban design has traditionally overlooked or marginalized women's experiences. These walks highlight #accessibility issues, #safety concerns, and points where city infrastructure could better support women's needs, particularly in #publictransportation, #transits, lighting, and signage. This hands-on approach raises awareness about #genderedurbanexperiences and encourages different identities to envision and advocate for a gender-equal city. #Amsterdam was one of these walks, and these are some of the quotes we got. A woman in one of our walks said "It’s eye-opening to realize how often women’s needs are #sidelined. Seeing it firsthand has inspired me to mention these walks and talk more about a city that serves us all.” “Once you see it, you can’t go back, and you carry this vision with you forever" Start this in your #city here https://lnkd.in/d3z4T2D9
