Women Friendly Leeds
Women & Girls Alliance Leeds, Women's Lives Leeds and Leeds Women's and Girls Hubs are working towards a city that is better for women, better for everyone.
​
The United Nations already have a Women Friendly City initiative, which defines a Women Friendly City as:
​
A City where women can:
-
Can access health, education and social services.
-
Can access employment opportunities.
-
Can access high quality and comprehensive urban services (such as transportation, accommodation and security).
-
Can access mechanisms that will guarantee their rights in the event they are subjected to violence.
A City where:
-
Local governments take into account women’s issues and perspectives in their planning and decision-making processes.
-
Women are supported and encouraged to participate in all areas of urban life on an equal basis with men.
