To make #transport gender #inclusive, it’s crucial to have data that shows the true picture of #female engagement in the #transport sector.

#AsianTransportOutlook is trying to fill this gap by developing an inclusive #transport database.

Smart. Classy. Intelligent.
My wife & our daughters are my constant reminders of women's grace + excellence. They inspire my @ADB_HQ work in promoting #genderequality because #women #girls can only fully realize their potentials when they're provided with ample opportunities.

[Bambang Susantono @bsantono]

Today, on #InternationalWomensDay, we celebrate women all around the world. We recognize their contributions to progress and to society as a whole. Today we stand with women and commit to #BreakTheBias—we eradicate bias that women continue to face in the journey towards equality.

5. Build healthy and environmentally sustainable cities—that also cater to the needs of the elderly and other vulnerable citizens;
6. Build resilient cities that can better withstand shocks/stresses brought about by climate change, disasters, and protect against future pandemics

[Bambang Susantono @bsantono]

Particularly, the urban poor and the vulnerable populations face two main challenges:
1. an increased probability of getting infected by the disease; and
2. less opportunities to make money to survive due to economic restrictions.

[Bambang Susantono @bsantono]

3. Look at urban planning systems to strategically incorporate lessons we are learning from the pandemic;
4. Strengthen financial sustainability—enhance the capacities of all stakeholders, particularly as we work to improve the governance of utility and service providers;

[Bambang Susantono @bsantono]

Already a huge challenge before the pandemic, this lack of adequate urban services has placed COVID-19 outbreak-affected areas at a greater disadvantage because they were the first to experience disruptions in normal operations.

This has been happening since the 70s but has accelerated since the turn of the century. We should effectively manage this rapid urbanization and do it sustainably. Most cities in developing Asia struggle with inadequate urban services and insufficient basic urban infrastructure.
