Mobility plays an essential part in improving the quality of life and access to the city's opportunities. However, it
contributes to and is affected by planetary emergencies, such as environmental and health crises. Despite allmeasures adopted until now to reduce those risks, it’s now clear that international agreements about climate change
will not be met on time.Therefore, cities' spatial organization, technology, and a better understanding of the societal
construction and regulation of behaviour must be addressed differently. Three global metropolises, such as Tokyo,Paris, and Buenos Aires, offer contrasting realities. They have specific patterns in space, demographics, culturalattitudes, socioeconomic situations, and institutional organization. But they are also affected by global cycles andhealth crises, like the last pandemic, from which some common lessons can be learnt. Greener, socially inclusive,and more intelligent urban development,should come faster, undoubtedly creating newconflicts in the short term.
But apublic conversation, including a multidisciplinary approach to achieve an effective change in space design andmanagement, behaviours and the adoption of new technologies, could offer an achievable roadmap for a different
social organization of urban mobility.

Marion Lagadic (University of Oxford)
Marion Lagadic is a doctoral student on the DPhil in Sustainable Urban Development
at the University of Oxford, under the supervision of Dr. Nihan Akyelken. Her research
explores the relations between cycling practices and gender in Japanese cities. In
Western Europe and North America, sustainable mobility is far from gender-inclusive:the vast majority of urban cyclists are men. In Japan, the contrary is true: the vast
majority of urban cyclists are women. Marion Lagadic’s research tackles the genderingof cycling practices in Tokyo, and explores Jwomen’s cycling practices in the context
of their position in the Japanese society.
