Thesis (M.C.P.)--University of Manitoba (Canada), 2009.

The different ways in which women and men interact with the built environment bring to light the inequalities that currently exist between the two, and the need to address this disparity through inclusive consultations and urban planning that better reflects the needs of women. The purpose of this study is to assess whether a gender focused housing model called Frauen-Werk-Stadt (FWS), has been successful in its attempt to address spatial inequalities in the built environment, through urban planning and design, and whether this has had an impact on resident's perceptions of well-being. Eight resident women were interviewed for the project. This study will further explore how aligning urban planning more strongly with the interests of women, particularly single mothers, affects the outcome of how this community is impacted by the built environment in their perceptions of well-being.
