Building data bases on gender and transport:

Increasingly materials are available on the web which can be brought together into data bases or tool kits which permit a better overview of the institutional processes and behavioural outcomes found within the transport and gender arena. Experimenting with information that is already available I have begun to build an account of the social history of Scotland's herring girls. Using maps which have live connections to the web sites of the communities from which these herring girls were drawn, I have begun a process of community consultation in the 'trawl' for relevant materials on the herring girls. This same type of tool could be used for policy purposes within Africa in exploring previously neglected but important patterns of gender and transport.
