Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls.
Gender equality is not only a fundamental human right, but a necessary foundation for a peaceful, prosperous, and sustainable world. By 2030, SDG 5 seeks to achieve gender equality and to empower all women and girls. EUC research integrates a gender-based analysis into many different research contexts, but women’s rights as articulated in urban spaces are a particular focus of our work. At the same time, the queering of urban spaces and rethinking of traditional conceptions of gender and sexuality are also key ways in which EUC researchers address questions of urban social justice.
