In 2011, the Ateneo School of Government received a grant from the

Rockefeller Foundation to undertake the “Catalyzing New Mobility in

Metro Manila” project which is eventually known as “Inclusive

Mobility”. After 12 months, the project has developed new platform for

engaging various communities, organizations, agencies, and individuals

and served as an integrator and awareness-raiser on critical but

unheralded innovations in Metro Manila. The project also established

robust resource center on the web and has begun a mind shift from

the narrow view of the problem as “traffic” to a larger view of the

problem as “mobility”, with special emphasis on the accessibility of the

poor and vulnerable to livelihood, work, public services, and other

activities and centers.

Starting June 2013, the Rockefeller Foundation has provided support for

the Ateneo School of Government to bring the Inclusive Mobility

Project into a more established footing and set onto a sustainable

trajectory. ASoG will collaborate and partner with appropriate groups

(local and international) with similar initiatives as need arises to

successfully implement the following project activities and deliverables:

Organize Inclusive Mobility Network;

Conduct a strategic planning exercise to develop a roadmap to

the institutional sustainability of the Project.

Design and prototype competency-oriented training courses on

inclusive mobility and related themes (e.g., sustainable

transport) for future catalysts including public officials and

community leaders at the Ateneo School of Government;

Develop communication materials to educate the public on

inclusive mobility (using traditional and social media); and,

Conduct research on Transport Governance.

The project will also use the next 12 months to continue policy

research and advocacy for inclusive mobility –using the advocacy and

the research to inform and shape the design and approaches to

accomplishing the above goals.
