Women’s Housing and the Urban Experience in Egypt is an essential read for those interested in the intersection between gender studies, urban planning, and social justice.

Edited by Hala Makhlouf, the volume explores the unfulfilled constitutional promise of safe and affordable housing for women in Egypt. All chapters are authored by leading Egyptian women researchers, who each take turns delving into the complicated experiences of women in diverse parts of the urban, from informal settlements and migrant contexts to student housing and alternative care settings and beyond.
