Babalik discusses the issues of urban mobility and accessibility in developing countries In the days of the COVID-19 outbreak, public transport has proved to be the most vulnerable transport mode Crowded vehicles, stations and stops are to be avoided to keep personal safe space and distance This is the case currently for cities throughout the world, and it may continue to be so for some time In response to this concern for safe distancing, change in travel behavior is likely to favor personal transport modes, including both motorized and non-motorized For non-motorized modes of transport, this could mean more walking and biking The move towards these modes in current times is not only due to their personalized mobility character, but also because they are active modes of transport, presenting an opportunity for exercise in the face of health concerns associated with staying indoors

Mazzolini et al offer insights on housing and mobility in Maputo, Mozambique Mozambique acted promptly in the COVID-19 crisis The response of the country was remarkable Early closures through a level 3 emergency declaration in mid-March (to last at least until the end of May), hygiene and awareness campaigns and physical distancing measures allowed the government to buy time before the contagion spiked A scientific commission is evaluating a model for risk assessment, risk containment and case tracking that avoids predicting the contagion curve based on external and decontextualised influences If housing is at the centre of the battle against COVID-19 in low-income countries, it is indispensable to define the kind of housing that must be deployed

Public streets are the quintessential site of politics: not just marches and assemblies where rights are demanded and disrupted, but the everyday expression of collective decisions about how we live together, about who gets access to which space and for what purposes, about the role of the state and the rights and responsibilities of citizens Those collective decisions are often highly contested, so that the relative rights and responsibilities of citizens and their cities remain the subject of ongoing negotiation The rules that regulate streets are always uneven The ways those rules are interpreted--and sometimes amended--are influenced to a significant degree by popular understandings about the kinds of use (and users) that are and are not legitimate in public space Those understandings, and in turn behaviors and rules, can shift

The COVID-19 pandemic has upended the basic premises of the economic system as we know it If this pandemic successfully disrupted our ordinary days under capitalism, it should also upend how we imagine the role of our cities As cities around the world plan to recover from this pandemic, there will be a rise in value-laden questions around what kind of collective values communities intend to pursue A post-disaster context often presents an occasion to ask ourselves what we truly value, what we are willing to preserve and what we are willing to forgo In Christchurch, in the aftermath of the devastating earthquake in 2011, citizens were given a chance to discuss what buildings and city infrastructure they considered to be essential and valuable enough to be rebuilt and restored (Gjerde, 2017) The post-COVID-19 condition may offer a similar moment of reflection Here are a few embryonic ideas on how cities may harness this moment to instil their visions towards more equitable, sustainable and resilient urban futures
