Healthy Urban Mobility, 2016-2019

The study used a mixed-methods approach comprising five specific field research components: Spatial mapping to understand the physical and built environment context in which mobility takes place; a social survey to capture the mobility and the health and wellbeing profiles of selected communities; in-depth biographic interviews to understand the role of past experiences of mobility and the rationale behind selected modes of mobility – identifying ‘mobile trajectories’; micro ethnographies through mobile interviews to capture the contemporary everyday experience of being (im)mobile; and, a participatory approach to involve the local community in identifying problems and solutions for healthy urban mobility and community wellbeing.
