Espaços públicos para todos: requalificação de uma praça em Curitiba sob a perspectiva de gênero

Abstract

This work is about the requalification of a square in the city of Curitiba from a gender perspective. The main objective of the work focuses on understanding the factors that influence women’s experiences in public spaces. The research on the topic was based on a bibliographic survey regarding concepts of gender, urban planning and landscaping, relating the three areas of study to understand and analyze the behavior of the female population in public spaces. Furthermore, three case studies complement the theoretical basis with guidelines that support choices for implementing the project, in addition to extensive research on the area of intervention, with analysis of constraints, potentialities and deficiencies. In this way, we seek to understand which factors and choices contribute to a better experience of public spaces by women, creating places in the city that are accessible and safe for everyone.
