Gendering the green city in an era of climate breakdown

Description

In this era, delivering equitable futures will depend on building green, resilient and inclusive cities for all. Yet, what thriving zero-carbon cities looks like in low- and middle-income regions is often neglected. From the Global South, this event will envision what urban interventions can expand economic, political and social inclusion, particularly for women, in a 2°C+ world.

Answering how urban areas worldwide can equitably and justly absorb the predicted population growth of 2.5 billion people by 2050, join us to hear from leading Global South Mayors, ODI researchers and international housing-rights activists on what gendering the green city means in policy and practical terms.
