What we stand for
Women Mobilize Women (WMW) is the leading global initiative on women in transport and mobility and seeks to actively transform the sector to become more diverse and inclusive.
WMW works to empower everyone’s right to the city through public advocacy and capacity building, strong regional networks and the empowerment of local organizations and initiatives on the ground.
Driven by strong leadership
WMW is guided by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) Feminist Development Policy for just and strong societies. By embracing a feminist perspective, WMW challenges the patriarchal status-quo and envisions cities that cater to the diverse needs and experiences of every individual – irrespective of gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, skin colour, disability or other characteristics. WMW is funded by BMZ and is implemented by GIZ’s Transformative Urban Mobility Initiative (TUMI).
