Women's Experiences in our City - Survey
It is a known fact that men and women have different mobility patterns. Women tend to make more trips with multiple purposes, as they may have more responsibilities and tasks to accomplish once they leave the house. However, many urban areas are not designed to accommodate women and girls’ needs and preferences, and expose them to various risks and challenges. As a consequence, women and girls face unwelcome, unsafe and stressful situations in their daily travels.
In 2018, Women in Urbanism Aotearoa conducted a survey of women and found that more than 75% of them had experienced harassment while using public transport, walking or cycling. This is unacceptable.
Women in Urbanism Aotearoa and Arup invites women and girls to share their stories and perspectives on how they feel and what they encounter when they move around their city.
Take their survey today by visiting womeninurbanism.co.nz.... Including your voice in this survey will help raise awareness of issues in our urban spaces and make our cities safer for all. Survey closes at midnight on Friday 16 February.
