Gender and Spatial Transformation
Introduction
- Investigating gendered dimensions of socio-ecological crises
- Identifying potentials for transformation research and practice
- Operationalising gender in spatial transformation
The Forum Gender and Spatial Transformation of the ARL – Academy for spatial development in the Leibniz Association – is an international working group of experts from research, politics, and planning practice who address spatial inequalities with a particular focus on gender.
The Forum aims to promote the exchange and cooperation between spatial research, politics, and planning practice, integrating socio-spatial perspectives and ecological issues. Committed to social-ecological justice in spatial development, the Forum seeks to provide impulses for all areas of its members’ activities to contribute to more sustainable spatial transformations. The aim is to integrate existing knowledge more effectively into scientific, political, and planning processes, utilising various formats and networks to facilitate this integration.
