ITF Stand

Open Stage Café
Organisers: ITF, MLIT Japan, UN Women, Foundation of Institutional Development Ukraine Transport policies affect people differently, and disruptions often expose inequalities and vulnerabilities among users. The International Transport Forum (ITF) and the FIA Foundation have recently launched a project on gender and transport resilience to better understand how such disruptions impact diverse groups and to support more inclusive, resilient transport systems. This session will present key highlights of the project alongside examples of initiatives across ITF member countries that promote resilient transport from a gender perspective. It will also encourage participants to share examples and insights on strengthening transport resilience through a gender lens.
