Nourhan Bassam PhD will share key findings from her upcoming book "Women After Dark," exploring how urban spaces impact women’s experiences after dark and highlighting the persistent challenges women face in cities at night. Through in-depth analysis, data collection, and community engagement, she examines how urban environments often fail to ensure women’s safety, comfort, and accessibility during dark hours. 

 

Nourhan Bassam, a feminist urbanist and architect with a Ph.D. in Urban Design and Placemaking, is the visionary behind "The Gendered City" which started as a book and grew into an organization. The Gendered City works on diverse feminist urban projects and research fields centred on creating just and gender-equal cities through feminist placemaking and active citizen participation.
