Moving together: Global south experiences, challenges and opportunities for managing urban mobility during COVID-19
UN-Habitat Even on COVID-19 and Urban Mobility
#MobilityDuringCovid
UN-Habitat, UNEP and WHO along with our supporting partners – have convened a half-day digital expert group meeting to share experiences , challenges and opportunities on the global south response to COVID-19 and management of urban mobility.
It is clear that COVID-19 is impacting the way people travel (both imposed and voluntarily). Public transport, shared mobility services, walking and cycling; are all being seen and used in a new light since COVID-19.
Governments, private sector and the public are responding in different ways all over the world. Whilst a lot of the shared experiences shared to date focus on the global north, this meeting will focus on what is happening in the global south (Africa, Latin America and Asia).
The need to respond and take action is urgent. The COVID-19 crisis is showing us the vulnerabilities of cities, mobility systems and people. It is evident that the impacts of the crisis are even more severe for people living in vulnerable situations, such as people with disabilities, children, elderly, those on low incomes and people living in crowded informal settlements.
