Structures of Care: How Feminist Urban Design Promotes Safety in Our Cities
Description
Last week, and for the first time, we had a conversation with a sociologist. And I must say that, looking at concepts such as #feminist movements, #urbansafety, and #care from her point of view was extremely interesting!
