| Cities have been under the policy focus of the EU from the 80s. The relevance of the urban issue has evolved through a complex process that has led to the definition of the urban dimension of the EU policy. In 1999 entered into force the Treaty of Amsterdam, which brought a new insight regarding gender issues, as it introduced for the first time the concept of gender mainstreaming. Previous research by the author allowed identifying that, contradicting the Treaty of Amsterdam and subsequent legislation, the urban dimension of EU policy developed after 1999 was gender-blind (De Gregorio, 2017). Interestingly, this started to change in the context of the definition of the Pact of Amsterdam (the programatic document of the Urban Agenda for the EU) agreed in May 2016 (De Gregorio, 2016). This resulted in an important change in the traditional gender biased approach with a relevant potential to mainstream the principle of equality between women and men in the urban action supported by the EU. This work continues previous research by the author focusing on the process of development of the Urban Agenda for the EU, with the aim of understanding how and to what extent the gender dimension is being integrated in such a process. The work is undertook through a mixed knowledge approach, aimed to achieve the mentioned objective and provide evidence of advancement (or inertia), and policy recommendations. | |
