Planning for Mobility Justice
Registration for the seminar in Winter 2026/2027 opening soon in TUMonline.
Description
This seminar introduces students to the concept of Mobility Justice and empowers them to critically examine and challenge inequalities in how people experience urban space. Following a three-part structure — Awareness, Assessment, and Addressing — students will explore why mobility justice matters by engaging with theory, practice, and the lived experiences of those affected. The students will analyze real-world case studies using a mixed-methods approach. Students work together in groups to co-create creative social interventions (such as podcasts, comics, architectural models, or board games) that raise public awareness and spark change. Blending academic inquiry with hands-on practice, this course fosters critical thinking, empathy, and action toward more inclusive and just mobility systems.

Room for Improvement
The seminar is part of Lea Zuckriegl's PhD. Throughout the semester, students are asked to complete small tasks to track their learning process and provide honest feedback in surveys or similar. The activities are integrated into the courses so that there is no additional workload for students. The results are used to adapt and/or improve the seminar for future students.

The conceptualization, implementation, and evaluation of the seminar is part of an individual PhD process. Participating students may therefore be asked to take part in additional feedback exercises and sessions. This lays the foundation for continuously improving the seminar for future students in the long term and provides details on how mobility justice can be effectively taught in higher education.
