ABSTRACT

The articles gathered in this volume are indicative of an urgent interest in the importance of gender in the planning, design, and practice of sustainable mobilities. The solution to contemporary problems of mobility will not be found without sustained attention to women and men’s differential mobilities, to the gendering of design and planning processes, and to the gendered underpinnings of discourses of mobility. This is true both at the local level of homes, neighbourhoods and cities, and at the national and transnational levels of travel, migration, and globalisation.
