At the 20^th International Urban Planners Exhibition held from 8 to 15 November 2011 in Niš (Serbia), Expeditio got a recognition for the project Gender and Space within the category Urban Studies and Researches.

On Sunday, May 1, 2011 in Gjirokastra (Albania) the representative of Expeditio, Tatjana Rajić, held a lecture on "Gender aspect in considering tradition and space planning". The lecture, followed by active discussion, was held before the students from the countries of the region who participate in voluntary work camp organized by Swedish association "Cultural Heritage Without Borders". The lecture was based on the experience from the project Rod i prostor realized recently by our organization.

In February 2011 realization of project "Rod i prostor" was completed. You can read the narrative report on realization of activities here

On Tuesday, 14 December 2010, in Hotel “Maestral” in Miločer, EXPEDITIO organized a workshop entitled “Gender and Space – Integration of Gender Equality Principles into Spatial Planning in Montenegro”.

As one of the activities of the project "Gender and Space - Gender Mainstreaming of Spatial Planning Processes in Montenegro" we have begun conducting interviews with women dealing with spatial planning in Montenegro, either those working on developing and implementing plans or those engaged in decision making at the local and national levels. The aim of this activity is to assess the situation in Montenegro when it comes to understanding the concept of gender equality within the context of spatial planning.

Gender and Space - Gender mainstreaming of spatial planning processes in Montenegro

In Montenegro, mainstreaming a gender perspective into plans and programmes at all levels is a legal obligation, which is not sufficiently implemented. The intention of the project “Gender and Space” is to encourage gender mainstreaming of the spatial development planning processes in Montenegro.

The project aims to increase awareness of the principles of gender mainstreaming among the actors involved in the processes of spatial planning in Montenegro.
