Inclusive projects around TUMI E-Bus Mission cities in LATAM
All around the world, the transport sector has historically been overwhelmingly male dominated, with culturally established gender roles limiting women’s participation in the sector. In Europe, the number of women in the sector comes in at only around 22% (or 14% for land transport exclusively) as of 2016; in Latin America, that percentage drops to an average below 11% (as of 2015).
