Talking Transport Transformation - S02-E32 | Exploratory walks with Consuelo Araneda Díaz
play

11/21/24 • 23 min

In this episode, we explore the role of exploratory walks in urban spaces, a concept that connects mobility, discovery, and inclusive urban design. These walks, often overlooked in traditional mobility studies, highlight the value of experiencing a city on foot—uncovering hidden spaces and fostering a sense of connection with our surroundings. Through her work with La Reconquista Peatonal, Consuelo Araneda Díaz brings to light the walking experiences of Latin American women living in Berlin, emphasizing the unique perspective of walking as a way to engage with our communities. Our special guest, Consuelo Araneda Díaz, an architect and urban designer with a Master’s Degree from the Technical University of Berlin, shares her insights on the potential of everyday walks to transform urban design, making our cities more inclusive and accessible for all.

Imagine: Sustainable mobility that lets people move autonomously at all ages and income levels! Our special guest Robin Chase paints a clear vision and says when people try and see for themselves, they’ll love it! We speak about overcoming resistance against new solutions, the responsible use of data, and why electric private vehicles won’t save us from the climate crisis.

Talking Transport Transformation - S02-E07 | Electromobility in Sub-Saharan Africa with Dr. Katherine Collett
play

10/27/21 • 27 min

Adopting Electric Vehicles in Sub-Saharan Africa

The global transport sector is changing – more and more countries are establishing ambitious targets in support of transport electrification. To achieve the goals of the Paris Agreement a global transformation must take place – also in regions where the implementation of e-mobility solutions seems more difficult. In Sub-Saharan Africa e.g. challenges arise from unreliable electricity systems, missing availability of capital and high dependency on an informal transport sector. For further insights into the cross-disciplinary challenges associated with transitioning towards net-zero, we had the chance to talk to Dr Katherine Collett about her interesting research work on this topic. Katherine is a Senior Postdoctoral Researcher in the Engineering Department at the University of Oxford with experience in electric vehicle integration both within the UK and Sub-Saharan Africa.

Talking Transport Transformation - S02-E03 | Data for Public Transport with Devin de Vries
play

06/10/21 • 34 min

Improving public transport services through up to the hour mobility monitoring

Public Transport remains the backbone of mobility systems in major cities around the world. And as urbanization continues, the formal and informal public transport services in mega cities grow and change constantly. What is key to utilizing the full potential of public transport and to increase its attractiveness for commuters is information about how and where these services can be accessed - or even where they are currently obstructed. To understand approaches to improve public transport services, we had the chance to talk to Devin de Vries. Devin is the CEO and co-founder of WhereIsMyTransport a mobility technology company that develops products to improve the public transport experience in emerging-market megacities. Join us for the discussion on the role of mobility data and up to the hour mobility monitoring for an improved usability of public transport services.
