The 2021 Young Women Lead cohort undertook a 9-month long study into Glasgow’s urban infrastructure and whether it reflects and supports the diverse needs of women and non-binary people living in the city.

The cohort collected gender disaggregated data through two surveys focused on attitudes towards Glasgow’s bus system and public parks.

With this approach, they aimed to centre women and non-binary people’s experiences within urban design and development.

This report presents their findings through a lens of feminist town planning, with a view of projecting this perspective onto Glasgow’s urban infrastructure.

This is the fourth Young Women Lead report, following inquiries into sexual harassment in schools, young women’s relationships with sports and physical activity and employment opportunities and practices to support women from ethnic minorities.
