5.5 Ensure women's full and effective participation and equal opportunities

Target description

The indicators that assess the impact of these actions by Madrid Nuevo Norte were prepared based on the 169 targets associated with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the targets taken on by the Madrid City Council and localised for the city.

  • Sustainable Development GOALS

    5.5 Ensure women's full and effective participation and equal opportunities for leadership at all levels of decision-making in political, economic and public life.

  • Madrid SDG

    M 5.4 By 2030, increase the proportion of women elected as councillors and managers.

Madrid Nuevo Norte project actions

An analytical study of gender, childhood, adolescence and family was carried out in the planning phase. The representation of women in the Owners’ Associations is ensured. Also, projects and initiatives designed especially for women have been carried out, taking into account their specific needs in the use of the city: 7 initiatives carried out with women's groups, 63 participants in walks and workshops, 3 different materials and resources published.

What is the impact?

The representation of women in leadership groups results in a more egalitarian decision-making process. In Madrid Nuevo Norte, this representation in decision-making favours inclusive, safe and egalitarian environments for men and women. Different initiatives are also underway to promote this goal.
