All Things Urban

Transport and mobility systems are not static. They are constantly moving and developing in response to the changing needs of the society they serve. In this gender and mobility course, we focus on gender and the process of gender mainstreaming, which aims to achieve equality by taking into account the diverse perspectives and needs of all users when shaping policy, planning infrastructure, or designing vehicles. This approach is a key tool for creating transport and mobility strategies that are both inclusive and effective. Inclusive transport isn’t just fair — it makes systems safer, more efficient, more sustainable, and a better experience for everyone. **Learning Objectives** By the end of this course, you will be able to: - Recognise that people experience mobility differently — and spot whose needs might be overlooked. - Understand why bringing a gender-aware perspective to mobility planning leads to better decisions. - Identify biases in current mobility planning practices and reflect on how they could be improved. - Explore practical tools for inclusive mobility planning, such as equality vs equity approaches, the feminine mobility concept, and gender impact assessments, illustrated with real study cases. **Why this course is worth your time:** ✅ 100% free access 🎓 Optional certificate available upon completion 📅 Only 4 hours total.
