Transport Planning: from Theory to Practice, Politecnico di Milano – Third Edition
We are delighted to present the 2025 edition of ‘Transport Planning: From Theory to Practice’! The workshop held by MIC-HUB City Futures Department at Politecnico di Milano.
Mobility is essential to people’s daily lives, providing access to resources and opportunities. However, the unequal distribution of mobility resources exacerbates social exclusion and systemic inequalities, disproportionately affecting marginalised communities.
In this workshop, participants will gain an in-depth understanding of the role of transport planning in promoting sustainable, liveable and equitable communities. By examining the spatial distribution of road crashes involving marginalised micromobility users, the students will uncover socio-economic and demographic factors that contribute to social segregation within active mobility spaces.
The workshop aims to challenge prevailing paradigms that perpetuate unequal mobility distribution and to address mobility injustice in planning, design and policy-making. With a specific focus on active mobility users in disadvantaged neighbourhoods, participants will assess their needs and risks in accessing infrastructure by analising the spatial configuration of the most affected areas.
Where: Politecnico di Milano
