The document discusses the organization Women Bike and its goal of getting more women riding bicycles. It aims to create opportunities for women of all backgrounds to participate as riders, advocates, and leaders in bicycling. Women Bike has compiled over 100 data points in its first report that identifies barriers and opportunities to increase women's bicycling. The report also debunks common myths about women and bicycling, such as that women are not interested in biking or that gender parity is not possible given the high percentage of women bikers in countries like the Netherlands.
Dispelling the Myths; Marketing Bicycling to Women carolynbike
In this presentation to the 2014 Iowa Bicycling Summit, League Women Bike director Carolyn Szczepanski shares some of the common misconceptions about women & bicycling — and some top line ideas to improve marketing and communications. Learn more at bikeleague.org/womenbike
This short slide presentation was prepared for a short "lightning talk" at the Rails Girls Galway workshop, 21st June 2014. The presentation explores the reasons for the under-representation of women in STEM and some of the initiatives which have been tried to redress this gender imbalance. The presentation concludes by advocating a holistic approach including not just initiatives to support and advocate for girls and women, but initiatives to change IT and STEM culture -- in schools, universities, labs, community & maker spaces, and workplaces.
Presented proprietary data about women's use of social media and their interest in politics and news content in Washington DC, both at the Obama White House, and to Republican party staffers.
League of American Bicyclists: Seeing & Believingcarolynbike
Bike equity means believing the stories people have to share about what it's like for them to be in the street. There's more to safety than being seen, and we need to believe when people tell us about insecurity beyond traffic violence.
Can we build common cause for safe streets that includes the fears of racial discrimination keeping so many people in their cars? What do enforcement-based approaches to traffic safety look like when they respect and address the realities of police mistrust? With insights gathered from bike/ped advocates this fall, we worked with Dr. Echo Rivera to craft images that shed light on why race matters in active transportation.
As a national organization, the League of American Bicyclists has a role to play in convening tough conversations. We're going to keep this Seeing & Believing project going as we shed light on complex barriers to active transportation.

Why are women cycling in Nairobi?
The Bicycle to school program in Africa has had fair level of success enabling girls get ahead in education. In a parallel study most of the young people are moving to urban areas in pursuit for higher education. In this study we seek to follow the success and bring you an account of girls who cycled to school and the challenges and opportunities in cycling in Urban areas in Kenya in their endeavour for higher education.
This Study is focused on the lives of women living in Nairobi and studying in Tertiary institutions in Nairobi who are beneficiaries of the bicycle to school program in Kenya and girls who cycle to work . We seek to document their current journeys to school and work, get accounts on perspectives of city life , dreams and aspirations around mobility in Urban Nairobi.
ATS14- It’s not just fun and games – women on bikes: targeting specific audie...BTAOregon
Women often make more of a household’s trips, yet women make half the number of bicycle trips that men do. Women are often referred to as the ‘indicator species’ when it comes to determining how accessible bicycle is in a community. How to get more women biking, enjoying it and feeling safe and confident? Marketing and campaigns directed specifically at women can help.
Effective programs and marketing engage people and lead people to make different transportation choices. They can provide a huge ‘bang for the buck,’ if done well and can lead to lasting change. But it’s not easy to shift public perception or change habits. What is the secret? What can programs, marketing and campaigns for active transportation learn from recent research and commercial marketing to be more effective? How do you avoid preaching to the choir and reach diverse audiences in meaningful ways? Do programs and marketing that target specific audiences, such as women and women of color have better results?
Walk away from this session knowing the top 5 things needed for effective programs and marketing and a solid return on investment argument for funding programs and marketing, and a toolkit.
Learn how some of the world's most inspiring women are using their growing economic power to create success in meaning in their lives while building a better world
