In the fifth episode of The Urban Q, Jaya talks to Dr. Inés Sánchez de Madariaga (UNESCO Chair on Gender) on the importance of addressing gender-specific challenges in transportation and urban planning to create safer and more inclusive cities for women. Dr. Inés explains the concept of ‘mobility of care’, and advocates for comprehensive urban infrastructure enhancements to tackle gender inequalities.
