Operating as an extension of Monash University XYX Lab’s ongoing global engagement, “Consenting Cities” explores, documents, and visualises international research concerning gendered experiences of safety in our cities. Coded symbols are en-meshed in the exhibition graphic, each connected to typologically categorised data points that reveal the high percentages of women and gender-diverse people who feel unsafe in public spaces. These spaces include the physical typologies of streets, bars, and public transport, as well as those we inhabit online.

In the workshop, you will work together to understand better the recurring patterns impacting the urban experiences of safety and inclusion for marginalised community members. The big question: What can we do to address gendered urban inequality?

This workshop, conducted in English, invites you to collaborate with like-minded urban enthusiasts, architects, and designers. We’ll discuss, ideate, and co-design the ideas for more inclusive and safer cities.
