Marie-Soleil CLOUTIER (INRS), Florence PAULHIAC (UQAM) and Sophie L. VAN NESTE (INRS)

This panel of three researchers aims to present, through three multidisciplinary perspectives, how urban mobility is captured by urban studies. The emergence of sustainability principles has guided certain studies on urban collective action and the capacity of actors to produce new policies in this field, particularly in relation to urban planning. Yet, this imperative has also brought to the forefront social issues at the heart of mobility practices, particularly those relating to the vulnerability of populations and their safety. Finally, the imperatives of the ecological transition and climate change have reified these perspectives by bringing a sense of emergency to act, but also a growing recognition of the risks of a public action disconnected from territories, local institutions and practices.
