Abstract This study aims to analyze the characteristics and problems on the physical environmental indices of Gender Impact Assessment, which are generally used in the field of urban planning/development project to implement women-friendly city. The following limitations are derived from analysis of the indices applied to Newtowns of Gimpo-hangang, Gwanggyo, Hwaseong-dongtan(2). Firstly, higher classification of the indices lacks consistency. Secondly, the indices are lack of clarity and concreteness and overlaps each category. Thirdly, the assessment method is subjective and the usage rate of the index is actually lower. Fourthly, the specificity of index reflecting gender-characteristics is insufficient. Lastly, the collective inspection conducted without consideration of different assessment period of each index does not ensure the further reflection of the index on urban planning/development project. Through this study, it is expected to be helpful to Gender Impact Assessment in setting up the role as the main tool to achieve gender equity in future urban development projects.
