This edited collection investigates gender-sensitive spaces, design practices, and provocations that challenge the complex social and material structures that shape inequities of access and inclusion in the urban environment. Designing Gender Sensitive Spaces for Consenting Cities: Practices and Provocations centres intersectional, gender-sensitive approaches to design in the urban environment as an integral strategy in combating spatial inequities. Through an investigation of design-led methods, project case studies, activist interventions, and processes of resistance and agency, this volume offers new thinking and practical approaches to demonstrate how design might shift towards safer and more inclusive cities for women, gender-diverse people, and LGBTIQ+ communities. This book will appeal to practitioners, scholars, and students of urbanism, design, planning, architecture, and geography, as well as government and non-profit organisations that are interested in gender and equality and can influence the future narratives of cities.
