Mobility and Gender Index Report Summary

This report explores the development of a Mobility and Gender Index (MGI) to track gender-based inequalities in transportation mobility. Key Findings and Progress:

1. Conceptual Framework:

   • A 6-dimension theoretical framework has been proposed to analyze gender and mobility:
     • Gender and mobility patterns (modes, locations, timings)
     • Gendered barriers to mobility
     • Gender and mobility infrastructure
     • Gendered perceptions of transport
     • Women’s representation in the transport sector
     • Legal and policy frameworks

2. Measurement Framework:

   • A metric-based system (minmax approach) was used to score indicators, rescaled to 0–1, focusing on levels rather than gaps.
   • Scores were aggregated using arithmetic means per dimension.
   • Data pre-processing involved filters for geographic coverage, periodicity, data availability, and statistical validity.

3. Visualizations:

   • Heatmaps for Dimension 2 (Safety and Security) and Dimensions 4 & 5 (Perceptions and Women’s Representation) revealed significant disparities:
     • High gender gaps in cross-country safety perceptions.
     • Lower women’s employment in the transport sector in regions like MENA and Sub-Saharan Africa.

4. Preliminary Challenges:

   • Data limitations restrict current index computation (e.g., insufficient sex-disaggregated data).
   • The analysis was hindered by a binary-only gender perspective, lack of intersectionality, and reliance on limited data sources (e.g., Gallup surveys, OECD).
   • Findings are not time-sensitive and rely heavily on open datasets.

5. Policy Implications:

   • The MGI, once fully operational, could prioritize addressing gendered mobility gaps and improve data collection.
   • Action is needed to enhance sex-disaggregated mobility data and promote collaborations among stakeholders.

6. Next Steps:

   • Data enhancement to improve geographic coverage and granularity.
   • Refinement of indicators and methodological approaches.
   • Development of the dashboard and stakeholder engagement for wider applicability.

Core Limitations:

• Insufficient data precludes a fully functional MGI.
• The analysis remains exploratory and is not intended for benchmarking.

Note: This report serves as a foundational step toward creating a robust MGI, highlighting the feasibility of measuring and visualizing gender inequalities in mobility.
