Women’s multiple role and responsibilities in home and workplace lead more diverse interactions with the city’s built ecology and their journeys are typically more varied and complex than men’s. UN-Habitat (2012) urges for gender sensitive urban planning and design “as women and the girls make up half the urban population, do more than half the work, do the majority of the care work, and are often subjected to the sexual and gender-based violence, cities ought to be designed and built with women’s and girl’s participation and interests in mind”. To address these critical concerns, gender mainstreaming must be introduced into all aspects of city life, including urban planning and design.

Gender based sensitivity and violence are both a complex socio-political issue in a society. To prevent the crime in the city punishment is not enough. It is more important to reduce the opportunities of situations to occur criminal activities by city planning and designing. As Majority gender based violence in the cities are merely opportunistic; that crime occurrence depends on the conditions of the place: the criminal commits crime where he finds opportunity. So along with the social factors, urban physical fabrics should be designed in a way that will increase surveillance and reduce the violence and crime.

This research has found the solutions that will improve the design, condition and situations of public spaces which will lead a gender responsive city structure.
