Join the International Society of City and Regional Planners (ISOCARP) and Commonwealth Women in Planning Network (CWIP) on 30th March, on the occasion of International Women’s Day, for a global panel discussion, supported by the University of the Built Environment,exploring how planning systems influence women’s rights, access to land and housing, and participation in decision-making.

This important conversation brings together experienced panellists who will share real-world case studies and practical insights on integrating gender equity into planning practice.

From co-creating solutions with women and girls, to improving access to land, housing, education , infrastructure , and safe public spaces — and ensuring gender inclusion in climate action planning — this session will highlight actionable pathways toward more just, inclusive, and sustainable communities.

We will be holding two sessions to accommodate all time zones.
