Abstract:
Technology in mobility should be examined empirically on individual and institutional levels, so that they may be accurate bases for AI development. In this study, Filipino women are consulted on urban transport planning through participatory methods. The unique demographics, circumstances, and locations of Filipino women in Southeast Asia, their corresponding transit systems and local communities, and their socio-cultural, personal, practicaland spatial factors are examined through surveys, focus group discussions, and ethnographies of urban public transportation to inform strategies for the development of empowering AI-Driven Filipino women safety apps.
