?? Reimagining Urban Mobility for Gender Inclusion in India! ?? Public transport must serve everyone equitably. Women form a significant share of users but face safety concerns, affordability issues, and poor last-mile connectivity, limiting their mobility and economic participation. Key insights from our latest article by Mitali Nikore & Brinda Juneja in ORF’s Global Policy Series: ?? 42 out of 50 Indian cities have gender-inclusive urban transport policies. ?? Yet, only 8 cities have introduced women-only buses & gender-responsive infrastructure. ?? Karnataka’s Shakti Scheme shows how free bus rides empower women, improving work opportunities & care mobility. A four-pillar strategy, data collection, policy reform, gender training, and infrastructure upgrades, can make urban transport truly inclusive. Let’s rethink mobility beyond safety and build cities where everyone moves freely! ???

Ensuring Women’s Safety: Beyond Outrage, Towards Action Another city, another day—another preventable crime. The recent attack in Pune underscores the urgent need for systemic change in how we address women’s safety in public spaces. Key takeaways from our founder Mitali Nikore’s latest article in The Indian Express: ?? Data-Driven Safety Measures – Crime data must be leveraged for targeted interventions in high-risk areas. ?? More Women in Policing – Women make up just 8% of India’s police force. We need mass recruitment & dedicated safety units. ?? Greater Women’s Presence in Public Spaces – From transport staff to street vendors, policy measures must enable women to reclaim public spaces. ?? Gender-Sensitive Infrastructure – Safety audits & urban design must address real risks like poor lighting & inaccessible washrooms. ?? Expanding the Nirbhaya Programme – Scaling funding & partnerships can drive nationwide impact. From Nirbhaya to Abhaya, progress has been made, but it’s far from enough. This Women’s Day, let’s commit to real, lasting change. ??
