tailieunhanh - A City Tailored to Women

Forging a new city vision and infrastructure through civic leadership and collective action Creating sustainable places will require the public, private and voluntary sectors to collaborate effectively. Reliance on the market to deliver essentials, even banking or housing, has evident shortcomings. What is needed is a new market model which endures over the long term because it delivers sustained value. Running a town or city depends upon engaging the whole community. Gaining enthusiastic consent for the changes required means two things: first, providing impressive cultural and political leadership – people are very much influenced by seeing others take risks: second, using communications channels imaginatively, so that more people appreciate the benefits. | A City Tailored to Women The Role of Municipal Governments in Achieving Gender Equality 2004 EDITION Federation of Canadian Municipalities FsiuneaeivSlk Wrtrfrf D Federation of Canadian Municipalities International Centre for Municipal Development 24 Clarence Street Ottawa Ontario K1N 5P3 Brock Carlton Director International Centre for Municipal Development Telephone 613 241-5221 Fax 613 241-7117 E-mail international@ Web Site City of Montreal s Femmes et ville Women in the City Program Service du développement culturel et de la qualité du milieu de vie Direction du développement social 800 boulevard de Maisonneuve Est Montreal Quebec H2L 4L8 Anne Michaud Coordinator E-mail anmicho@ Web site femmesetville This publication is available online at femmesetville FCM Liaison Renée Giroux Concept and Coordination Anne Michaud Research First Edition Sophie Paquin Writer First Edition Danielle Stanton Collaboration Joyce Brown Francine Gagnon Gloria Gallant Research and Writing 2004 Edition Anne Michaud Research Assistants Sophie Dupiech Kim Cornellissen Marie-Pierre Martinet English Translation Sarah Binder English Editing Susie Lamarche June 2004 Second Edition revised and expanded ISBN O-919080-69-3 FCM Publication 1030E The Federation gratefully acknowledges the support of the Canadian International Development Agency for its publications and international programmes.
