Gender Equity and Social Inclusion of Women, Children, Elderly Persons and Persons with Disabilities.

This Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) focuses on gender equity and social inclusion of women, children, elderly persons, and persons with disabilities. The most pressing issues to be dealt with are: addressing gender inequality and the social exclusion of women, children, elderly persons, and persons with disabilities. The major reason for dealing with these issues is to explore how the urban infrastructure and policies exclude people with disabilities, elderly persons, children, and women. Therefore, the developed content of the MOOC will inform students, NGOs, and government structures working in areas of advocacy for social justice, social welfare issues, social sustainability, gender matters, and social inclusion, among others. The MOOC course specifically focuses on targets 2 and 7 of SDG #11. Target 2 considers providing access to safe, affordable, accessible, and sustainable transport systems for all, improving road safety, notably by expanding public transport, with special attention to the needs of those in vulnerable situations, persons with disabilities, women, children, and older persons. Target 7 dwells on providing universal access to safe, inclusive, and accessible, green, and public spaces particularly for women, children, older persons, and persons with disabilities. Indicators include produced supplementary teaching, including mini-lectures, case studies, onsite shooting of urban infrastructure, and interviews/interactive sessions.
