We’re partnering with the folks at Movement to discuss local government and public transit, including:
- What local governments can do to improve our public transit systems
- Challenges facing our public transit system
- The importance of public transit from a gendered lens
About the organizations:
Movement Vancouver is a group of transit riders, professionals, and enthusiasts fighting to make transit better in Metro Vancouver.
Women Transforming Cities (WTC) aims to radically shift social, economic, and political power to equity-deserving groups to reshape who cities are built by and for so that communities’ needs are met and everyone can belong, participate, and thrive. We do this with an intersectional feminist lens through civic literacy and education, research, advocacy and collaboration. Become a member of WTC.
