In order to promote the low-carbon transformation of transportation whilst better integrating gender-responsive measures, the NDC Transport Initiative for Asia’s (NDC-TIA) China Component project invited experts and practitioners from the fields of low-carbon development and sociology for a joint discussion on 1 August 2023.
Under the theme of “She ACTs – Accelerating Carbon-neutral Transportation with a Gender Perspective”, the event offered a safe space for 25 invited guests, including researchers, transport planners and practitioners as well as representatives from several multilateral development banks and the German embassy, to share about main challenges and opportunities to enhance the gender-inclusive character of climate action and policies in the transport sector in China.
