| This new issue of Gender & Development aims to update the picture on progress to support women's rights and promote gender equality in the context of rapid and continuing urbanisation, enduring patriarchal power relations which result in oppression, abuse and violence, and growing inequality between global elites, and the poor and powerless majority. Brand new case studies from practitioners, academics and activists - on topics including participatory methods in urban planning; urban governance and accountability; Safe Cities; and urban livelihoods – make abundantly clear that the voices of women living in urban poverty need to shape policy, both as a matter of social justice, and to ensure sustainable development for humanity. Contents: Campaigning to save market women's livelihoods in Hanoi: experience from HealthBridge - Kristie Daniel, Debra Efroymson, Tran Thi KieuThanh Ha, Dinh Dang Hai and Sian Fitzgerald * Safe Cities programming and campaigning in the ActionAid Federation - Christy Abraham, Daphne Jayasinghe, Rachel Noble & Kasia Staszewska * SafetiPin: an innovative mobile app to collect data on women's safety in Indian cities - Kalpana Viswanath and Ashish Basu * Community mentors as coaches: transforming gender norms through cricket among adolescent males in urban India - Madhumita Das, Ravi Verma, Sancheeta Ghosh, Samantha Ciaravino, Kelley Jones, Brian O'Connor and Elizabeth Miller * Working with legal pluralism: widowhood, property inheritance, and poverty alleviation in urban Senegal - Ruth Evans * Grassroots women's accountability mechanisms: strengthening urban governance through organising and partnerships - Rachael Wyant and Katarina Spasić * Planning from below: using feminist participatory methods to increase women's participation in urban planning - Sara Ortiz Escalante and Blanca Gutiérrez Valdivia * ActionAid's Young Urban Women programme in urban India: taking an intersectional approach to decent work, unpaid care, and sexual and reproductive health and rights - Baishali Chatterjee | |
