Women
Transforming
Cities
We're helping to build cities where all women and girls, in all their diversity, have real social economic, and political power.
Who is Women Transforming Cities?
Women Transforming Cities (WTC) is a grassroots organization based in Vancouver, Canada.
For 10 years, WTC has been working as part of the intersectional feminist movement to ensure that all self-identifying women and girls can live safe and fulfilling lives, and participate in civic life.
Our Work
Watch Council
An intersectional feminist municipal election campaign in Vancouver highlighting priority issues for women and girls.
A virtual library to share women friendly practices and policies, inspire innovative practices and new ways of working together in cities.
To ensure city initiatives are inclusive, we review every council agenda to make sure it has an intersectional feminist lens on key issues.
We are committed to increasing women and girl's understanding of city politics and processes, particularly those from communities who are marginalized.
Find out about WTC’s workshops or request a speaker for an event.
The work of WTC in Vancouver takes places on the stolen ancestral territories of the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), Stó:lō and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) and xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) Nations. We acknowledge the leadership of Indigenous women for time immemorial, and seek to learn and unlearn our own colonial practices as we work in cities as sites of resistance.
Get Involved
Transforming our cities into spaces that work for everyone demands all of our participation, strengths and passion. There is a lot to be done, and we would love you to join us!
