New Special Issue - Gender Perspectives on Climate Change: Transforming Spatial Planning

Dr. Tanja Ernst Stabsstelle Wissenschaftskommunikation
ARL – Akademie für Raumentwicklung in der Leibniz-Gemeinschaft

    The special issue, 'Gender Perspectives on Climate Change: Transforming Spatial Planning of the ARL International Working Group 'Gender- and Climate-just Cities and Urban Regions' is now available in disP – The Planning Review, Vol. 61, No. 3, pp. 242. The articles are available via open access.

    The special issue provides insight into the topics of spatial development and transport planning across different European countries. The preliminary aim is to promote theoretical thinking, methods and tools from a gendered transformative perspective on climate issues and topics in planning sciences and practice. Climate change affects everyone, but not equally. “Gender” is one of the main factors influencing people’s vulnerability and ability to cope with climate change.
    This special edition contains four articles that address issues of gender perspective in two main areas of planning – spatial development and transport planning – as well as at various planning levels and scales. These range from strategic spatial planning and transport planning to the design of transport modes related to questions of climate change adaptation and mitigation.
    The first three articles are based on the inter- and transdisciplinary International Working Group (IAK) “Gender- and climate-just cities and urban regions” of the German Academy for Territorial Development in the Leibniz Association (ARL). Based on the expertise of its members and a literature review, the working group agreed on two concepts. The Gender Integration Continuum Framework (GIC) and the Gender Impact Assessment method (GIA) were used to improve understanding of the integration of gender dimensions in strategic government policies in Serbia and Austria, climate action plans for mobility in Germany and the United Kingdom, and data generation in the context of transport planning in Serbia, Switzerland and Sweden. The fourth article included in this special edition deals with the implementation of gender-based mobility design as a contribution to climate mitigation.
