Abstract

Today’s societies are dependent on increasingly complex and interdependent safety-critical systems with often poorly understood vulnerabilities. If their provision of service is cut off or drastically reduced, the dependent activities will either fail or perform at a lower level. Transport systems are a good example of such propensity to natural and man-made disruptions. Due to their complexity, uncertainty, and safety criticality, Mobility offers a high number of opportunities for research and innovation, particularly in the present technological era. Thus, objectives like disaster risk reduction, sustainable development strategies, and sustainable transport, are nowadays included as well. The holistic approach is based on the principle of promoting inclusive mobility without creating any negative impact in other areas of each targeted community, thus requires an integrated perspective of the work towards inclusion under safety, sustainability and resilience conditions.
