About the course

Gender is still a relatively new consideration for planners and local authorities. Historically cities, public realm, streets and transportation have been designed by men, which through predisposition and experience intrinsically means that they also serve men above women.

This course gives a clear understanding of gender issues surrounding mobility and transportation. It also looks at difficulties women face in getting jobs and climbing the career ladder in the transport sector which is dominated by a male workforce. Importantly, the course shares concrete solutions designed to support the shift towards greater gender equality in the sector.

It explores gender-differentiated mobility and employment barriers in the transport sector and shares examples to address them.
