In 2019, Valenciennes Métropole signed the European Charter for equality of women and men in local life.

Following this signature, in 2021, Valenciennes Métropole launched its first action plan to promote gender equality within an integrated vision in its public policies and implemented some concrete actions.

Valenciennes Métropole, however, faces some difficulties in the implementation of its roadmap to promote gender inclusive urban planning policies, due to a discrepancy in alignment among stakeholders. 

This event is by invite-only. The key learnings will be shared afterward.
