| description |
Transport is not 'gender
neutral'. Men and women hold different socio-economic
roles and responsibilities that are associated with
different patterns of transport access, needs, and use. Yet,
there is often not much recorded evidence on the differences
in gender travel needs between men and women, in urban areas
in particular. Transport planning has not routinely
addressed these differences and sex-disaggregated data on
transport needs and patterns is very limited. The present
regional report summarizes the findings and recommendations
of four separate case studies on gender and transport
conducted in Casablanca, Morocco, Sana'a and rural
Yemen, and Nablus, Jenin, and Tulkarem in the northern part
of the West Bank, during between September 2008 and
September 2009. The main objective with summarizing the case
studies into a regional report is to provide a regional
overview relevant for a better understanding of how
transport infrastructure and services are facilitating or
constraining mobility by gender in the MENA region. In
particular, the gender differences in access to resources,
markets training, information and employment. The report
also aims to review other country experience and good
practice to help identify priority areas for public
intervention to improve women's mobility and enhance
their access to economic empowerment relevant for MENA and
other regions. |
