ABSTRACT

The global economic crisis, on a planetary level, imposes the use of all of the underused human capital including women, who must be free to express their innovative capacity without giving up their private lives. City planning has many new challenges: among these, next to the task of providing places where life and work activities can be carried out in a settled community, there is the task of guaranteeing, for any single person and on any spatial scale, accessibility to the urban places and facilities where social activities of human life are carried out. It is an important premise because the economic empowerment of women exists in a friendly city that knows how to reconcile individual time schedules with public timetables and that knows how to link biographies and memories of its male and female inhabitants with the nature of human biological temporality.
