Gender equality and planning: Implementing the New Urban Agenda
A Planner article on how the New Urban Agenda can support gender-inclusive cities through planning, access, and public-space design.
This article argues that planning has a direct role in shaping safer, more inclusive, and more usable cities, and that gender equality should be treated as a spatial as well as a social question.
It links the UN's New Urban Agenda to practical planning concerns such as mixed use, accessibility, safety, and the everyday design of public space.
