The urbanization trend in India has led to unequal access to public spaces, transportation, and employment opportunities for women, alongside heightened risks of harassment and violence. This case study examines how gender-sensitive urban planning in the National Capital Territory (NCT) of Delhi addresses these challenges to create inclusive and safe urban spaces for women. Through qualitative and quantitative methods, including stakeholder interviews, surveys, and policy analysis, the study evaluates Delhi's initiatives in inclusive infrastructure, policy frameworks, community engagement, and safety measures. Key findings highlight the positive impact of gender-segregated facilities, clear policy directives, and community involvement on women's mobility and safety. Additionally, innovative safety measures, such as technology-based solutions, are explored. Challenges, including data collection limitations and the need for sustainability, are identified. Overall, the study emphasizes the importance of prioritizing women's needs in urban development, offering insights applicable to rapidly urbanizing regions globally.
