About the Event
🚶♀️ **Does your city’s mobility system truly work for everyone?** 🚌
Urban mobility is the lifeblood of our cities, yet for too many, navigating these systems feels like an obstacle course. Women and marginalized groups often find their needs overlooked in the design and operation of transport services, leading to significant gaps in safety, accessibility, and convenience.
Join us for a dynamic and insightful webinar, "Gender Gap: How to Make Mobility Work for All?" We’ll explore the critical issue of gender disparity in urban transport and discuss practical strategies to build more inclusive, equitable mobility systems that serve everyone in our communities.
Speakers:
- Dr.-Ing. Ines Kawgan-Kagan, Managing Director of the AEM Institute and a recognized expert on gender and mobility, will kick off the discussion by addressing why gender equity in mobility is a pressing issue. She will dive into the lack of gender-specific data and its far-reaching impacts on urban planning and policy-making.
- Lina Mosshammer, CEO and co-founder of the inclusive mobility platform POINT&, will bring theory to life with real-world examples of successful gender-sensitive mobility solutions. Through case studies, she will illustrate how thoughtful, inclusive design can transform urban transport systems and make cities safer and more accessible for all.
Moderated by:
The session will be expertly moderated by Nayla Saniour, a fellow urbanist and experienced moderator who has been leading all the All Things Urban online sessions. With her deep understanding of urban issues and her engaging style, Nayla will ensure a lively and informative discussion.
