Executive Summary

This pilot mapping workshop on Catalyzing New Mobility in Cities is a half-day activity
co-organized with the University of Michigan-SMART Centre held last 1 February 2012
at the Occupational Safety and Health Center, DOLE, North Avenue, Agham Road, Quezon
City. It was attended by various 38 individuals from 25 private organizations,
government and academic institutions, and individuals working on transportation in
Metro Manila namely ASEAN GTZ Clean Air for Small Cities Project, CAI-ASIA, OSHC
DOLE, Ayala Land Inc., Parasatabi, The Nature Group, NEDA, OpenStreetMap Philippines,
Philippine Science High School, ASCENT, Department of Transportation and
Communications (DOTC), Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA),
Barangay South Triangle, Palafox Associates, Entrepreneur Society of the Philippines,
League of Cities of the Philippines, INNOVENSY, GTVSP Philippines. With support from
the Rockefeller Foundation, this undertaking was organized by the Innovations at the
Base of the Pyramid in Southeast Asia (iBoP Asia) Program of the Ateneo School of
Government in partnership with SMART Center of the University of Michigan.

Following a new mobility forum the previous day, the New Mobility mapping
workshop’s primary objectives were: 1) reveal existing and potential transport mobility
grid including informal hubs and other uncharted transport system features; 2) provide
stakeholders an opportunity to work together in accelerating and advancing
implementation of sustainable, connected, inclusive transport and generating and
sharing related information, and policy initiatives; and 3) build on and further extend
the shareable knowledge base of inclusive mobility-enhancing features of the informal
transport system.

The mapping exercise was deemed necessary because of the existing complex and
diverse transportation modes in Metro Manila. In addition, the growing number of
unaccounted public transport terminals and hubs hinders the walkability and
sometimes obstruct the flow of transport. The country lacks readily available and
accessible information where they are. LGUs and other government agencies lack
capability to produce up-to-date map and mapping requires much time and resources.

In this exercise, Ms. Susan Zielinski, Managing Director of SMART, explained that the
participants would reveal the existing New Mobility Grid of the Quezon City North
business district area. The grid they would come up with will be very useful, customized
and special to everyone. This process allowed them to see what they got, what they are
working with and together come up with collective solutions. Regarded not just a
brainstorming activity, two possible outcomes were expected from this exercise: one
was to share this experience to others and second use the map as a tool.

The participants were divided into 4 groups and during the workshop proper, the
following were some of the things observed in terms of group dynamics, group process,
strengths and weaknesses:

 Group members were actively engaged and attentive to one another.
 The groups had a great mix of technical and creative minds in the presence of
planners, researchers, entrepreneurs, IT specialists, policy makers, private
sector representatives, writers and concerned citizens. The variety of
experiences from each member provided very vast information and details on
each map.

 Each group member had a story to share. The entire exercise was based on not
only the things they saw or observed during the walking tour but it also
consisted of their own experience while commuting or traversing the metro.
 Some of their innovative ideas were based on their positive personal
experiences in other cities that they wanted to replicate.
 The good thing about this exercise was the creative juices kept flowing and it
probed each participant to raise queries especially at times when they feel like
an idea will be challenging or if they have a different opinion. There were a
number of healthy arguments that made the groups active.

Some of the common themes that came out during the plenary presentations were: Bike
lanes, single ticketing, commuter friendly stuff, walkways, improve communication, and
need of better signage.

In general, the participants found the mapping workshop very useful and they learned a
lot from it. Their main concern was how to make the map more accessible to target
users. The participants are envisaged to eventually form a more permanent group, like
an e-forum that tackles the issue on mobility. They acknowledge current government
initiatives, but they prefer a more visionary approach rather than solution finding. They
all have high hopes for new mobility in Metro Manila and so the workshop ended on a
high note.

Catalyzing New Mobility in Cities: The Case of Metro Manila
1 February 2012

I. Welcome Remarks
Dr. Antonio La Viña, Dean, Ateneo School of Government

The Pilot Mapping Workshop of Catalyzing New
Mobility in Cities in Metro Manila co-organized by
ASoG with University of Michigan-SMART
Centerheld at the Occupational Safety and Health
Center of DOLE in North Avenue corner Agham Road,
Quezon City started at around 9:00 a.m. with Ms.
Cddyqa Rogel leading the Invocation and National
Anthem. She welcomed the various participants in
the event. She then called Dean La Viña to give the
welcome remarks.

Dean La Viña thanked her and greeted the
participants a pleasant morning. He said that the project launch the day before was
heightened by the quality of participation. Aside from technical research activities
with an overall objective of a better city, it is time to catalyze a coalition of
individuals and organizations that advocates and push for a more livable city. He
shared that every time he meets Chairman Tolentino, the good Chair always speak
out that the agency automatically gets sued once they take action because of the
nature of the law that created MMDA. Dean La Viña personally noted the he was
almost sure that MMDA would get sued in the unified ticketing system being
proposes. He also shared that Chairman Tolentino also said that when they get sued
no one is behind them, and that there is no citizen organization to back them up.
This does not go for MMDA only but also for other government institutions and LGUs
who begin to think of innovative things being implement. Therefore, he called for
everyone to catalyze and organize their efforts to support good projects being
implemented by government agencies like MMDA.

This activity is in line with that approach, where a group of individuals and
organizations from all parts and discipline could help, guide and also learn. He
expressed his excitement to learn a new approach to mapping in transportation.

As to why the mapping exercise was done at the Occupational Safety and Health
Center, Dean La Viña said because it is an area where all could have a short walking
tour of a central business district and discover possibilities in transportation. This
activity would bring minds together to bring innovative solutions to problems that
are centered to why transportation immobility is experienced in the metropolis.
Other responsibilities hindered him to stay for the mapping activity but he wished
everyone to have a fruitful time.

II. Introduction of Participants
Dr. Segundo Joaquin Romero, Director, iBoP Asia

Dr. Romero mentioned that this is already
the fourth activity of the New Mobility project.
They started with a forum in Ayala, followed by
the inception meeting then the project launch
yesterday. These are not unrelated events but
they all lead to hopefully a more permanent

1

1 February 2012

group that will advocate for new mobility. He hopes that New Mobility could be one
of the innovations of ASoG similar to how Transparency and Accountability (TAN),
the biggest anti-corruption group in the Philippines, was formed. This could be New
Mobility’s vision or goal especially since the people from yesterday’s project launch
were pushing to have more discussion in new mobility. A huge map, as big as the
billboards found in malls is being hoped at the end of the project. But before
producing such, they should begin with this SMART approach in mapping exercise
and in connecting the dots.

After which, he then asked each participant to introduce themselves by stating
their name, occupation and affiliation. (See Annex A for Attendance Sheets)

III. SMART Mapping Overview
Ms. Susan Zielinski, Managing Director, SMART Centre University of Michigan

Numbers and words on new mobility were presented yesterday and they were
all great, but today Ms. Zielinski said the participants would be taking a different toll
by going around the room and getting physical. With that she did a little exercise
with the participants. She made them stand up and raise their right arm. Then asked
them to put their left hand on their right wrist and move their left hand up to right
arm. Next she asked them to raise their left arm, put their left hand on their right
wrist and move left hand to right arm. What happened was, they all rolled up their
sleeves which was what today’s mapping activity was about. The participants were
encouraged to stand beside each other and interact. Each participant had colored
dots on their nametag and the idea was to have as many colors per table as possible.
The more they were next to someone they did not know was a great thing. They
were given a workshop guide in case they got off track. (See Annex B)

In this exercise, Ms. Zielinski said that the participants would reveal the existing
New Mobility Grid of the area. The grid they would come up is expected to be very

2

1 February 2012

useful, customized and special to everyone. This process allowed them to see what
they got, what they are working with and together come up with collective solutions.
She informed the group that she had done similar mapping process to different
communities and maps come out unique every time. She then reminded everyone
the three things they were aiming for: connecting the dots, moving minds and
moving money.

This exercise is not just a brainstorming activity. Two possible outcomes were
expected from this exercise, one was to share this experience to others and second
use the map as a tool. Ms. Zielinski instructed the participants to take this mapping
as a dry run and way of learning together in the process. The map could be made
into something that would be useful by combining different things.

Maps were placed on each table and all materials were provided. This activity
aimed for knowledge, connectivity and implementation. In the walking tour, she
asked the participants to think of the following guide questions: How things are
connected to each other? How things might have economic or innovation
opportunities? Describe the transformation of the sights in a new way? They should
be able to tell a story.

Question from Benjie dela Peña: what are we looking for when we go out? What
are we paying attention to?

Response from Susan: Looking at all the different modes of transportation, the
way information is given out, the juxtaposition, is it easy to get off and get in? How
do people use the transportation and connectivity of the system? Economic
opportunities and tell a new story about it. When is it going to be enhanced? What
works, what doesn’t and what would you do better?

IV. Walking Tour of QC North CBD: Trinoma-SM North Area

The participants walked along the sidewalk
of North Avenue, crossed the street using the
overpass, passed through the North Avenue
terminal station, crossed the pedestrian crossing
area and back to the venue.

Aside from the formal transport terminal
found in SM North EDSA, there was also an
informal transport terminal of pedicabs along the
North Avenue road. The different modes of
transport seen plying along the North Avenue
road were private vehicles, two-wheeled MVs,
Public Utility Jeepneys (PUJs), Pedicabs, Taxi
cabs, AUVs, Van shuttles going from one point to
another, and the Metro Rail Transit (MRT) train.
But despite this, it is interesting to observe a lot
of people are seen walking along the road or
crossing the road.

V. SMART Mapping Workshop Process Briefing
Ms. Susan Zielinski, Managing Director, SMART Centre University of Michigan

Ms. Zielinski reminded everyone that each table should have a good mix of colors
representing different sectors and join people that they do not know. She said that
enough tools and supplies were made available for each working group. The
participants should not be constraint to only one plan and asked to feel free to take
more tracing paper from the workshop team in case they needed more. Less tangible
resources were also present at the participants’ disposal such as:

 Group members
 Knowledge of some of the transport features of the selected focus map segment
 Some knowledge of what is connected

4

1 February 2012

 Sense of humor and creativity
 Sense of civic duty/ passion for improvement

She then enumerated the
workshop tasks. First she instructed
the group to find a note taker to
take down crucial discussion points.
The group should also select a
reporter to present the group
output at the end of the workshop.
Everyone gets 12 minutes to
present their output after 2 hours. A
facilitator was also required but the
discussion may start without it.
Then she instructed each one to
introduce themselves to their group
mates by saying their name
followed by what they are hopeful about, something positive or what they love in
Manila’s transportation.

The first step is revealing the new mobility grid. Look at the maps on their table and
identify connection points. Find places you can connect using small or big ideas (e.g.
Signboards to understand the system or an application for iPhone).

Second is to identify the area where you can start working with your idea. Then
think about what economic benefits activities you can think of? How can you save
money? How could you invent new businesses/ services/ innovation to connect the
dots? What are the economic ideas that can create job, save money, invest in business?

Third is moving minds, where participants portrayed their project. How do you put
the signage up? How do you tell a story of the integrated system? It involves marketing,
finding a way and helping people figure out how things are connected.

She instructed the note takers to tally at least five research questions needed in
order to serve the project. Note takers were also instructed to jot down policies that are
needed to implement the innovation project. The groups were also asked to identify
people that they believe should be at the table with them.

Then the groups will come back in plenary and report their outputs. They were
instructed that if they are stuck on one thing, they should try moving to another just to
keep the flow going.

VI. Mapping Workshop

The room was divided into 4 groups. In the workshop proper, the following were
some of the things observed in terms of group dynamics, group process, strengths and
weaknesses: (See Annex C for transcript of note takers)

1 February 2012

 Most groups were very active where the group members actively engaged and
attentive to one another.
 The activity was done with almost everyone from the group standing up and
doing their share in mapping.
 Most groups also used all the tools available for them but the most commonly
used tool was the colored dots to represent various transport terminals. The
groups assigned legends to describe what they saw during the walking tour.
 The groups had a great mix of technical and creative minds in the presence of
planners, researchers, writers and concerned citizens. The variety of
experiences from each member provided very vast information and details on
each map.
 Each group member almost had a story to share. The entire exercise was based
on not only the things they saw or observed during the walking tour but also
consisted of their own experience while commuting or traversing the metro.
 Some of their innovative ideas were based on their positive personal
experiences in other cities that they wanted to replicate.
 The good thing about this exercise was the creative juices kept flowing and it
probed each participant to raise queries especially at times when they feel like
an idea will be challenging or if they have a different opinion. There were a
number of healthy arguments that made the groups active.
 In each group, there was always one that stood out as a natural facilitator
without having to volunteer or be chosen and this is usually someone who has
technical knowledge on the various transport systems.

After lunch, each group was called to present to plenary what they have discussed.
(See Annex D for summary of the group outputs in order of presentation and Annex E
for photos of actual group outputs)

1 February 2012

During plenary, everyone was intently listening to each other’s output. Ms. Zielinski
said that this was the quietest group that she had handled. Common themes that came
out from the presentations were: Bike lanes, single ticketing, commuter friendly stuff,
walkways, improve communication, and need of better signage.

VII. Awarding of Certificates

Certificates were awarded to all who attended the workshop. The certificate, signed
by Dean La Viña and Ms. Zielinski read (See Annex F):

SMART New Mobility Mapping and Implementation Seminar.
<Name of Participant> has completed the University of
Michigan SMART Program’s New Mobility Mapping and
Implementation Seminar and has gained skills related to
advancing and accelerating integrated and sustainable
transportation systems in communities and regions.

VIII. Synthesis and Next Steps Forward
Dr. Marie Danielle Guillen, Project Manager Finding New Mobility in Metro Manila

Dr. Guillen thanked everyone for participating and
encouraged all to be part of a catalyzing project. She was
interested to see that people learned something new and
inspired by their optimism. She posed finding new
mobility as a challenge for all. That in order for Metro
Manila to be livable, they need to help each other. The
issue is not really competition but complementing and
finding innovative ideas to improve the current situation.

The event ended at around 1:00 pm.
