Webinar: Can Cities be Feminist?

Drawing on OECD research and data on gender equality, this webinar will explore how Champion Mayors’ cities are pursuing gender equality.

• What does it take to have a city government prioritise gender equity and ensure equal representation in decision-making?
• What institutional mechanisms, accountability and oversight tools for gender equality and mainstreaming are cities using?
• In which areas and policy sectors have cities identified opportunities to pursue gender equality?
• What are examples of promising strategies and initiatives to empower women and how are cities measuring the impact of these efforts?
