FAQs
Where can I find the “Remarkable Women in Transport” Publication?
The publication can easily be downloaded on www.womenmobilize.org/publications/ for free.
How were the women listed in the “Remarkable Women in Transport” publication selected?
The remarkable women experts in transport listed in the publication are a selcetion of women experts, who have been recommended by TUMI partners and who approved to be part of the first edition of the publication. The listed women represent only a very small part of the many more women experts out there striving to empower women in the transport sector and cater mobility to women’s needs. Therefore, the publication is a first step and does not strive to be comprehensive. To underline this, we will make a series out of the “Remarkable Women in Transport” Publication to feature and present many more inspiring transport women experts in the future.
