    Buses are Free for Women in Delhi: What Can the World Learn From That?

    What happens when public transport is made free for women? And how does mobility shape access to work, education, and safety? Hosts Yewande Omotoso and Carl Schlyter are joined by Nishant, a researcher and member of the Public Transport Forum Delhi, to explore the impact of Delhi’s fare-free bus policy for women. From improving gender equality to reducing emissions and easing urban congestion, they talk about how mobility is more than just getting from place to place, it’s about power, freedom, and inclusion. They discuss what the world can learn from this initiative—and whether other cities should follow.

To commemorate International Women’s Day, this episode asks: How can free public transport create more equitable cities for women and a greener world for all? What can you do?
