I’ve been back in Brasilia for a few weeks now, and I just wanted to say I had a blast during my time in Toronto. Wonderful city, great university and fantastic colleagues and students. Canada, and particularly Toronto, is one of the best places to be if you are a student, a researcher or practitioner working with transportation justice and accessibility. Without a doubt.

In one of many special moments during my stay, I had the honor to give a Bousfield Lecture. I’ve tried to give a general overview on urban accessibility research, why it matters, the advances we’ve seen over the last decades and a few potential research avenues for the future.
