Webinar "A multidimensional approach to urban inequalities: thoughts and aspirations"

This webinar is part of the "Neighbourhoods, inequality and youth: putting multidimensional inequalities on the local political agenda in countries in transition" project, implemented through a partnership between Oxfam (Brazil, Mexico, Spain), the European Union, Barcelona City Council, the World Association of the Major Metropolises (Metropolis) and the Barcelona Centre for International Affairs (CIDOB), the aim of which is to identify public policies for reducing inequalities in urban settings from a multidimensional, interdisciplinary and intersectional perspective.

This event aims to share and disseminate promising experiences in measuring and analysing inequalities in urban settings, especially in large cities and metropolitan areas such as Mexico City, Brasilia, São Paulo and Barcelona. It also seeks to promote the use of these methodologies and share lessons learned from these experiences from the perspective of both civil society organisations (Oxfam Mexico, Rede Nossa São Paulo and Movimento Nossa Brasilia) and municipalities (Barcelona City Council).
