Eight Cities, One Goal: How FEMACT-Cities Turned Gender Equality into Daily Governance

The mistery of gender equality (a true story from Torino)

By Città di Torino,

It all began in Turin more than forty years ago. The City seemed committed to a bold mission: gender equality. But as the case developed, it became increasingly intricate, influenced by administrative processes, shared responsibilities, and several concurrent efforts. Apparent progress often revealed areas where deeper integration was still needed. The evidence was clear: despite countless efforts, Turin still lacked a single, coherent master plan for equal opportunities.

Then came FEMACT-Cities — the turning point in the investigation.
A new task force was formed, determined to reopen the cold case and connect the missing dots between policies, people, and purpose to develop a new Gender Equality Plan.
