This Topic Guide draws on a 2024–2025 assessment of gender inclusivity in Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans (SUMPs) across the Global South. Based on reviews of 22 MobiliseYourCity-supported cities and detailed analysis of eight, the project combined document reviews with stakeholder interviews to identify good practices and gaps. It produced actionable recommendations to help practitioners, from local authorities to consultants and funders, integrate gender into SUMPs through tasks such as drafting Terms of Reference, evaluating bids, collecting and analysing data, engaging stakeholders, and monitoring progress. The Guide illustrates these approaches with examples from the assessed cities and other benchmark cases.
