Abstract: Numerous studies concerning developing countries have adopted a gender-oriented approach. They have shown evidence that the needs of women should be given greater consideration when creating development programs. Women have been greatly ignored due to the lack of visibility of their own activities. The aim of this paper is to show the heterogeneity of women's activities and transportation needs. Access to the workplace and the benefit of household help appear to be the conditions for emancipation. The diversity of women's situations is relative to the impact transit policies have on improving living conditions for women.
