4th WORKSHOP, WOMEN AND CITY: THE INHABITABLE CITY

Youth Institute (Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs), Madrid City Council

C/ Ortega y Gasset 71, 28006, Madrid

December 13th, 2004

 

 

“Daily life, seen through womens´ eyes, must become a political matter( 5th act of the European Charter for Women and Cities).

Under the headline The Inhabitable City, we proposed the creation of a space for thought, discussion and exchange of ideas and experiences over the authentic contribution and participation of women in the building of human habitats. 

Sewing back time and space, weaving and thinking them over, in order to create a more inhabitable city, is a difficult task, nonetheless a beautiful challenge for those women and men who want to build a city that reflects diversity and promotes an egalitarian culture.
