Cities for You(th)

Cities for You(th) project focuses on empowering young women from marginalized urban communities through youth-led active citizenship. Targeting young women, the project equips them with essential skills in technology and data collection to advocate for gender-inclusive urban environments. Through the YARA Leadership Program, participants learn innovative methods such as street mapping, safety assessments, and community surveys to gather evidence on public spaces and services. This initiative fosters a generation of informed leaders capable of shaping gender-responsive cities based on real-world needs.
