Through research, the Project will explore how the current public transport system affects the poor and vulnerable populations of Metro Manila, and also seek to identify new or emerging entrepreneurial or livelihood opportunities responsive to their mobility needs. The goal is to formulate a holistic and innovative approach in tackling mobility issues in Metro Manila. With the support of The Rockefeller Foundation, the Project’s long-term vision is to become a new platform, resource centre and enabler of innovation for inclusive development in the region in the area of mobility.
