Digital media and feminist activism: Reclaiming inclusive urban spaces in the post-digital era. CIDADES, Comunidades e Territórios, (49), 65-79. https://doi.org/10.15847/cct.384262182-3030http://hdl.handle.net/10400.2/20756This article examines the role of digital media in urban feminist activism, highlighting how activists utilize digital platforms to challenge patriarchal norms and practices, promote gender equality, and foster inclusive spaces for marginalised voices in urban contexts. At the intersection of feminism, technology, and urban development, this study aims to understand how digital media can contribute to identifying exclusionary practices and disparities while advocating the promotion of inclusive urban spaces that reflect the diverse needs and experiences of citizens, with a particular focus on women. This study adopts an interdisciplinary approach to explore the use of digital media for various types of mobilisation and support networks. It is based on a theoretical framework that addresses themes of digital citizenship, feminism, and urban studies, contextualised in various projects and digital initiatives of feminist activists. Examples of digital activism, such as the #NiUnaMenos, #MeToo, and “Woman, Life, Freedom” movements, are presented to demonstrate the reach of digital platforms in raising awareness, mobilising collective action, and pushing for social and legislative change. “Free to Be” and “Her City Toolbox” are presented as examples of how digital tools for collaborative digital mapping can collect data, empower participants and inform decision-making processes to create inclusive urban spaces. The final notes underscore the significance of digital empowerment in expanding opportunities to identify and address systemic barriers, exploring various forms of communication, and promoting active participation in urban processes, ultimately envisioning the co-creation of cities that value diversity, equity, and accessibility.engFeminist digital citizenshipInclusive urban spacesDigital mediaParticipatory processesPost-digitalGender equalityjournal article10.15847/cct.38426
