E12: Feminist Design, Built Environment & Inclusion with Nourhan Bassam, Urban Design Innovator in Gender-responsive spaces

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When designing spaces, why is a feminist lens important?</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">What might egalitarian social spaces look and feel like?</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">How might museums, parks and cities be designed differently to include the needs of women, caregivers and girls?</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Historically,  a male-centric perspective has been dominant in the design of spaces - particularly cities - which has led to a series of decisions and standards with long-term consequences on the experiences of others, including women and girls, people with diverse gender expressions, racial and ethnic minority groups, neurodivergent groups and other under-represented people. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In this episode, we talk with Nourhan Bassam - a leader and innovator in the field of Feminist Urban Design. We discuss safety, ease of mobility, how the 'othered' groups may travel through and across spaces differently and more frequently. Impacts on indoor and outdoor museum, public and parks spaces include navigation, orientation, feeling and experiencing ease and safety. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Some of these measures have been discussed and implemented in museum and cultural </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">spaces, but there is still much to learn from applying a feminist lens the designs of</span> <span style="font-weight: 400;">museum buildings, museum experiences, public spaces, cultural spaces, and connection experiences like transportation and arrival to your site. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Nourhan hopes by raising awareness about the barriers faced by women and the many othered groups, her work will inspire individuals, communities, and policymakers to take action and create spaces and cities that are safe, inclusive, and empowering for all.</span></p> <p><a href= "https://www.linkedin.com/in/nourhan-bassam-39164b78/"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Nourhan LinkedIn</span></a></p> <p><a href="https://genderedcity.org/"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Nourhan’s website</span></a></p> <h2> </h2> <h3><strong>Links to resources: </strong></h3> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Bell Hooks book,</span> <a href= "https://bookshop.org/p/books/feminism-is-for-everybody-passionate-politics-bell-hooks/11024110?ean=9781138821620"> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Feminism is for Everyone</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">.</span></p> <p><a href= "https://sydney.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Committee_City-for-Women-Final.pdf"> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Vienna applied gender mainstreaming 30 years ago</span></a></p> <p><a href= "https://www.theguardian.com/cities/2019/may/14/city-with-a-female-face-how-modern-vienna-was-shaped-by-women"> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Vienna, Aspern neighborhood</span></a></p> <p><a href= "https://blog.experiencepoint.com/design-thinking-in-city-planning-vienna"> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Vienna and human-centered thinking</span></a></p> <p><a href= "https://www.google.com/search?q=gendered+mobility+15+minute+city&oq=gendered+mobility+15+minute+city&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTIHCAEQIRigATIHCAIQIRigATIHCAMQIRigATIKCAQQIRgWGB0YHtIBCDk1NTVqMWo0qAIAsAIA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8"> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Gendered mobility;

E11, Pt 2: Close observation, empathy and compassion with Bonnie Pitman, Director of Art-Brain Innovation at UT Dallas Center for BrainHealth

<p dir="ltr">How does close observation lead to empathy and compassion? This week, we’re honored to  hear from Bonnie Pitman, a national leader in education and the public engagement of art, who has been a thinker and a doer on the bleeding edge of arts education and engagement for 40 years. </p> <p dir="ltr">After a long career in art museums, Bonnie is now working on ways to cultivate empathy and compassion through viewing art. Her Power of Observation Framework™ was developed in part to guide medical students using a process of close observation leading to a sustainable practice of empathy and compassion for their patients. In this episode, we hear multiple examples of how the Framework may be applied, as well as its uses in museum spaces. </p> <p dir="ltr">Through this work, Bonnie has also created a daily practice to <a href="http://www.dosomethingnew.org/">"Do Something New"</a>, which invites the exploration and celebration of making an ordinary day extraordinary while dealing with her own chronic illness.</p> <p dir="ltr"> </p> <p><span style="font-size: 18pt;">Links to resources discussed in the episode</span></p> <p> </p> <p dir="ltr">1990s watershed report: <a href= "https://www.amazon.com/Excellence-Equity-Education-Dimension-Museums/dp/0931201144"> Excellence and Equity: Education and the Public Dimension of Museums</a></p> <p dir="ltr">Book: <a href= "https://bookshop.org/p/books/ignite-the-power-of-art-advancing-visitor-engagement-in-museums-bonnie-pitman/9317185?ean=9780300167542"> Igniting the Power of Art</a></p> <p dir="ltr">The Power of Observation™  - <a href= "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HyZzlB2LtOs">lecture</a></p> <p dir="ltr">The Power of Observation™  - <a href= "https://rise-leaders.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Power-of-Observation_BPitman.pdf"> framework</a></p> <p dir="ltr"><a href= "https://centerforbrainhealth.org/people/bonnie-pitman">UT Dallas - Center for Brain Health</a></p> <p dir="ltr"><a href= "https://arthistory.utdallas.edu/pitman/">Edith O’Donnell Institute of Art History at UT Dallas</a></p> <p dir="ltr">JAMA - Journal of the American Medical Association, Pharma Art—Abstract Medication in the Work of Beverly Fishman</p> <p dir="ltr"><a href= "https://www.mindful.org/loving-kindness-meditation-with-sharon-salzberg/"> Sharon Salzberg</a>, Bonnie’s teacher for loving kindness meditation </p> <p dir="ltr"><a href= "https://www.nashersculpturecenter.org/">Nasher Museum</a></p> <p dir="ltr"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong id= "docs-internal-guid-84d70842-7fff-1582-1076-fbe2739b15a3"><a href= "http://www.dosomethingnew.org/">Do Something New</a> - Instagram <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/bonniepitman/">@BonniePitman</a></strong></span></p>
