The Ateneo School of Government received a grant from the Rockefeller Foundation to undertake the "Catalyzing New Mobility in Metro Manila" project, also known as "Inclusive Mobility", from 2011-2012. After 12 months, the project established a resource center and shifted the view of mobility issues from just "traffic" to a broader view emphasizing accessibility for vulnerable groups. With continued Rockefeller Foundation support from June 2013 to March 2014, the project aims to organize an Inclusive Mobility Network, develop strategic plans and training materials, conduct public education and research on transport governance to advance inclusive mobility policies.

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.
OUTPUTS:
 Executive summary and final copy of
strategic plan of the ff:
o Ateneo as Inclusive Mobility Champion Plan
o Strategic plan for the IM Network
 Summary document on the Network with
full roster of contact details, brief write-ups
of their organizations, and description of
their engagement
 Copies of significant documents produced by
