Title: The Women and Regeneration Project

The Women and Regeneration Project was a three-year community research and development project looking at the role and involvement of women in urban regeneration programmes in London.

women and graffiti It was led by the Women's Design Service (WDS), with Planning Aid for London (PAL) and the Association of Greater London Older Women (AGLOW) as consortium partners.

The Project received funding from the Community Fund London between 1999 and 2001. A part-time Community Researcher and a part-time Community Development Worker staffed the Project. A Steering Group, consisting of consortium members, Project volunteers and others with an interest in women and regeneration, guided the Project through its work.

The Project aimed:

  • to build the capacity of women to enable them to influence the decisions and policies of their regeneration partnership boards.

The Project produced a good practice guidance publication (Re-Moving the Goalposts: Perspectives on Women and Regeneration), based on this project work and associated background research.
