Roundtable: Gender and Urban Commons

How are urban spaces designed, developed and managed in the light of gender dynamics? How to build cities that meet the needs and uses of all? Who participates, who decides and who benefits from these initiatives?

Through interdisciplinary conversations, international case studies and feedback, the next Urban School Wednesday will explore how gender inequalities manifest themselves in the making of the city and how urban commons can be rethought to promote more inclusive and equitable spaces.
