This policy brief examines mobility patterns and constraints in Bogotá, focusing on how gender intersects with socioeconomic and household characteristics. Evidence is drawn from a 2022 survey of 6,100 individuals in Sisbén categories A–C, analyzed alongside food security vulnerability and geographic location to inform gender-responsive policy design.","POLICY BRIEF  \nMOBILITY AND WELL-BEING OF VULNERABLE POPULATIONS IN BOGOTÁ: GENDER GAPS IN URBAN MOBILITY  \nIn big cities in low-and middle-income countries, vulnerable populations often face challenges in accessing services and economic opportunities, owing to disadvantages stemming from spatial inequalities. 1,2 Today, 55 percent of the world’s population lives in urban areas, a proportion that is projected to rise to about 70 percent by 2050. Improving the mobility of vulnerable populations in large urban centers is therefore central to reduce poverty and enhance global well-being ina sustainable manner.3, 4  \nPublic Disclosure Authorized Public Disc losure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized  \nThis note is the first in a series that seeks to study the mobility patterns and constraints of vulnerable populations in Bogotá, the capital and largest urban center in Colombia, to understand better how to expand access to opportunities that will improve their wellbeing. The aim of this first note is to analyze the gender aspects of mobility patterns and their interaction with other socioeconomic and household characteristics. Understanding these dynamics is critical for designing policies that can reduce gender gaps, as evidence suggests that urban transport systems are often unfavorable to the mobility needs of women in low-and middle-income countries.5  \nPub lic Disc losure Authorized  \nThe results of this note are based on a survey conducted between April and July 2022 using a sample of 6,100 individuals, randomly chosen from the census of households belonging to the three lowest categories (A, B, and C) of the System for the Identification of Potential Beneficiaries of Social Programs (Sisbén, for its acronym in Spanish) .a These categories include poor and vulnerable populations. Figure 1 illustrates the vulnerability of the surveyed households based on food security indicators and classified by their Sisbén category, while figure 2 shows their geographical location.  \na Sisbén is a unified system that has been used in Colombia since 1994 to classify the population according to their living conditions and to thus enable targeting of social programs. The survey was conducted over the phone and targeted individuals between the ages of 18 and 62.  \nFigure 1.

Households surveyed, by geographic location  \nSource: Baseline survey for the study on mobility and public transport fare policies for Sisbén populations,(DIME, 2022).  \nBOGOTÁ AND ITS INTEGRATED PUBLIC TRANSPORT SYSTEM (SITP)  \nBogotá has a population of 7.5 million, accounting for 15 percent of Colombia’s total population.6 Like many big cities in lowand middle-income countries, it has a higher density and percentage of low-income populations in outlying areas, farther away from job opportunities and other services than other population groups who enjoy better socioeconomic conditions.7, 8 Several of Bogotá’s policies have yielded dividends in terms of improved accessibility, affordability, and sustainability of its transport system. One such policy is the integration and regulation of all buses and modes of public transportation in the Integrated Public Transport System (SITP). A key aspect of the SITP is that it integrates fares, which allows riders to use a single smart card (TuLlave) system-wide, thereby reducing the cost of trips for users who have to make multiple transfers between different components of the system. Another noteworthy policy is the implementation of an incentive system for users with low socioeconomic status (currently people in Categories A and B of Sisbén IV), who are allowed access to differentiated fares. There are also special benefits for people with disabilities and people over 62.  \n","cbCairxd3vB712Zb","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCairxd3vB712Zb","pdf",15559620,4,1,"English","en",105,"# Policy background and objectives\n## Urban mobility challenges in low- and middle-income cities\n## Study aim and gender focus\n# Survey design and study context\n## Sampling frame and Sisbén categories\n## Data sources and vulnerability mapping\n# Bogotá’s public transport system (SITP)\n## Integrated fares and incentives\n## Relevance of Bogotá’s transport constraints\n# Results overview\n## Trip frequency and purposes\n## Gender differences in SITP usage","[{\"question\":\"What problem does the policy brief address in urban areas?\",\"answer\":\"Vulnerable populations often face disadvantages from spatial inequalities that limit access to services and economic opportunities through constrained mobility.\"},{\"question\":\"How was the study data collected and who was included?\",\"answer\":\"The analysis is based on a phone survey conducted between April and July 2022, using a sample of 6,100 individuals randomly selected from Sisbén household categories A, B, and C.\"},{\"question\":\"What major gender difference in mobility patterns is highlighted?\",\"answer\":\"Men make more weekly trips on average, while women use the Integrated Public Transport System (SITP) more frequently, indicating a key gender gap in how often SITP is used.\"}]","Mobility and Well-Being of Vulnerable Populations in Bogotá -
