As cities evolve into more connected and data-driven environments, mobility is shifting from vehicle-focused systems to solutions designed around people. Human-centric mobility places the needs, choices, and daily experiences of citizens at the heart of transport planning and services.
Rather than focusing solely on speed and efficiency, wise mobility systems aim to create seamless travel across modes, making it easier to move effortlessly between walking, cycling, public transport, and shared mobility. They promote accessibility and inclusion, ensuring safe and convenient mobility for everyone — regardless of age, income, or ability.
Human-centric mobility also supports sustainability and liveability by reducing emissions and reclaiming public space for people, not just traffic. Trust and transparency play a key role: citizens must understand how mobility data is collected, shared, and used, and feel confident that it serves the public good.
Finally, wise mobility reflects local culture and context. By moving away from one-size-fits-all solutions and embracing place-based approaches, cities can develop mobility strategies that truly resonate with their identity and social fabric.
This session explores how human-centric principles can help shape smarter, more liveable, and inclusive cities through mobility.
