Women\u2019s Inclusion & Engagement in City Planning & Operations Is a Global Priority<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Women experience and use the urban environment in different ways from men; they have different priorities in terms of services and infrastructure, for example regarding transport, housing and public spaces. Such priorities rarely feature in urban policy or investments. While cities have been a place of liberation for women in comparison to their rural counterparts, they are still designed around men. In areas where resources of all kinds are more limited, these disparities become especially acute, affecting women\u2019s safety, health and income. This is particularly true in parts of the global south, where urban planning struggles to provide basic services \u2013 much less promotes gender equality.<\/p>\n

April 21, 2020 – The coronavirus pandemic will leave its mark on urban centers long after the outbreak itself recedes.<\/p>\n

Why it matters:<\/strong> The most densely populated cities are ground zero for the virus’ rapid spread and highest death tolls \u2014 and they’re also likely to be pioneers in making lasting changes to help prevent the same level of devastation in the future.<\/p>\n

The big picture: <\/strong>The combination of urbanization, climate change and a hyper-connected society means infectious disease epidemics are likely to become more common, the World Economic Forum<\/a> warns.<\/p>\n

What to watch:<\/strong> Here are predictions from urban experts on how cities might change.<\/p>\n

Buildings:<\/strong> We spend 90% of our time indoors. “Buildings, if managed poorly, can spread disease. But if we get it right, we can enlist our schools, offices and homes in this fight,” said Whitney Austin Gray, senior vice president of the International Well Building Institute in an Urban Land Institute webinar.<\/p>\n
