Designing Care: Eva Kail's Perspectives on Gender-Sensitive Planning and Governance

In this episode, host Milagros Hurtig sits down with Eva Kail, a pioneering urban planner and feminist thinker whose work has reshaped how cities can better serve everyone. Together, they explore Eva's first steps in gender planning, the fundamental role of gender in urban design, how Vienna pioneered gender-sensitive urban planning, the Oberes Hausfeld urban development and about tools and advice for inclusive urban planning. Through a candid and insightful conversation, Eva and Milagros unpack what it means to design cities with empathy, from gender-sensitive planning to the politics of public space. This episode of superwien podcast invites listeners to look more closely at the streets they walk every day and imagine how thoughtful design can create safer, more equitable, and more joyful urban futures.Learn more about Eva's work: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/07/17/realestate/vienna-aspern-seestadt-gender.html Learn more about superwien's Oberes Hausfeld design: https://www.wien.gv.at/pdf/ma21/planen-im-dialog-oberes-hausfeld.pdf#urbanism #gender #feministplanning #architecture #inclusion #inclusivity
