Mobility and transport offers should be approached and implemented accordingly. In order to address the whole market, differences between men and women must also be taken into account. To ensure that the topic gets into practice, we offer our online course Gender and Mobility.
The topic of gender is attracting more and more attention. It's about time, though, since we've known for decades that there are significant differences in transport behaviour between women and men.
Over a period of four weeks, the online course Gender and Mobility offers a space to approach the complex topic together with others, generate ideas, and establish contacts. Each week, one module is unlocked, which can be worked on independently and interactively. But don't worry, nobody will be left alone! In addition to two live events, there will be enough space for Q&A and exchange, so that projects can be launched right away.
Why is it important to think about gender in the field of mobility and transport? In addition to introductory evidence, the background will be explained, what social gender actually is and what effects it has in our everyday lives.
In this section, we dive deep into the findings and learn about different mobility and transport fields where gender has an impact. For holistic insights, the Gendered Daily Mobility Framework is used and filled with different results from studies.
In a lot of the data, women are often invisible, as the book Invisible Women by Caroline Criado Perez, has also shown (absolute reading tip!). This module shows the current deficits and provides ways to collect and analyze data in a gender-sensitive way.
So, what do we actually do with all this knowledge about differences? In this module, concrete measures are developed that can be applied in practice to make women more visible. Be it in the form of how to make teams more diverse or how to make products and services more attractive for women.
