Context

The Feminists for the Right to the City Committee is initiating a mobilization to ensure inclusive and safe sustainable mobility in Montreal. Since February, a dozen women living with disabilities have been keeping logs of their travel experiences in order to document the obstacles and insecurities that affect their movements. Based on their testimonies and a survey, the TGFM wants to develop tools to promote concrete and relevant solutions (e.g. report, poster, vignette, workshop and training).
