IME is a platform for research advisory and policy engagement about mobility innovations and their (un)intended social impacts.
Transport-related social exclusion
To explore diverse understandings of TRSE and reframe the concept for a rapidly changing urban mobility realityMobility innovations
To identify and critically examine technological and non-technological mobility innovations and their challenges and opportunities for social inclusionInclusion and sustainability
To harness the potential of mobility innovations to make sure the transition to net zero leaves no one behindTechnological innovations are transforming the global landscape of urban mobility
Their impacts on cities and societies, however, are not equally distributed
The Inclusive Mobility E-nnovations platform emerges from the principle that, along with safety, efficiency, and environmental sustainability, social inclusion should underpin current mobility discussions.
We are an international platform for knowledge co-production and dialogue that explores the role of mobility innovations in fostering or exacerbating social inclusion at the city, neighbourhood, and individual scales, with a focus on participation, diversity, intersectionality, and the reduction of inequalities through transport.
Focusing on technological and non-technological innovations and their contributions to the transition to a more sustainable and equitable urban mobility.
The app-based mobility (ABM) is one of the fastest growing industries in the transport sector. Highly dynamic and rapidly evolving, the growuth of ABM often outpaces governments' ability to regulate them and prevent social exclusion.
We seek to generate impact through evidence, dialogue and collaboration
Cooperation
Facilitating opportunities to collaborate with organisations in the state, the market and civil society to coproduce knowledge about mobility innovations.Policy
Informing policy and decision-making processes through rigorous evidence and frameworks rooted in the notion of social inclusion.Regulation
Contextualising and understanding the complexities of regulatory environments affecting mobility innovations and identifying opportunities to maximise inclusion in regulatory decisions.
