Description:
Transportation equity is an important and growing component of urban social and spatial justice, and now one of the most prominent research themes in the sub-discipline of transportation geography. The crises associated with the Covid-19 pandemic, global economic recession, climate change, and racial injustice have only made more urgent the need to consider transportation as a key input in building an actionable "right to the city" for all.
Recognizing the interdisciplinary nature of this topic, and building on the theme of this year’s Annual Meeting “Toward More Just Geographies,” this series of sessions on transportation justice brings together conceptual, theoretical, or empirical research that draws on different research traditions within Geography and cognate disciplines and/or takes different methodological approaches. This particular session focuses on research that examines poverty in the context of transportation.
The series of sessions has been organized by Julie Cidell (University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign), Joshua Davidson (University of Pennsylvania), Steven Farber ( University of Toronto), Hannah Hook (Ghent University), Shaila Jamal (McMaster University), Hannah King (University of California, Los Angeles), Karen Lucas (The University of Manchester), Tim Schwanen (University of Oxford), and Anastasia Soukhov (McMaster University).
