Remarkable Women in Transport

To empower Female Change-Makers in the transport sector and change mobility systems to cater to women´s needs, we seek to highlight and support the role of women in sustainable urban mobility. Women may comprise more than half the global population, but in the transport sector, they’re still dramatically under-represented and comprise less than 20% of the global transport workforce. We want to change that! That’s why we’re celebrating the successes and accomplishments of the women who have been working hard to transform transportation.

In four editions of the Remarkable Women series, we’ve already honored 149 women who work in the transportation sector and are transforming transportation globally. Where do these women come from? Let’s have a look:
