| Abstract: | The paper on the spill-over effect of feminist urban planning of mobility towards the sustainability of a city deals with the potential of feminist urban planning approaches reflected in gender mainstreaming. The qualitative content analysis is being done on documents and policies on city development and interviews with experts primarily of the cities Vienna, Berlin and Stockholm. A Theory of Change is developed and generalized from the activities of the cities, then to be translated to what the SDGs and the three-pillar concept to sustainability say about the requirement to achieve a sustainable city. The assumption is that there is a spill-over effect, and that feminist urban planning applied to mobility can nurture sustainability. This was confirmed by the development of the Theory of Change while it provided many options for discussion mainly regarding the definition of sustainability and to what extend a system criticism is inherent to feminist policies. The paper provides a basis for future research as it is a hypothetical development of a theory whilst supporting the application of future feminist planning projects by demonstrating its potential in relation to the pressing issues of climate change and sustainability. |
