ABSTRACT In 2014, Sweden became the world's first self-defined feminist nation and a place where gender equality has a strong ideal within the country's national identity. However, the issue of gender equity remains unaddressed in some area across Sweden. Sätra district in Stockholm located between Bredäng and Skärholmen is one of those examples that women usually suffer from inequality. By considering social equality as a fundamental principle of good urbanism, the need for feminist urbanism feels necessary in this context today. Through the lens of feminist urban planning, mainly focused on women in Sätra and tried to reflect women's voices in every urbanization policies. The study is going to examine the role of gender in public space, its socio-spatial implications and create feminist participatory strategies to empower women. In this research, Mothers considered the effective groups of women as their educational role in their family and their central role in the community awareness raising is undeniable. In this way, strengthening mothers role in urban settings can have a powerful multiplier effect on urban development. So that's what has been considered in the whole process of decision-making. This would make an inclusive and women-friendly public space for girls and women where is safe and secure and responsive to the needs of all kinds of people.
