The right to mobility is a right that seeks to guarantee mobility for all people the i.e., the possibility to movefreely, safely, accessibly, and sustainably, in order to meet their basic needs and exercise other fundamental rights, such as work, education, health, leisure, or social participation.

This right includes all forms of movement under conditions of equity and quality, such as walking, cycling, or access to public transportation, and not only the use of private motorized means of transport. It implies the obligation of State to design infrastructure and manage mobility systems that prioritize people over vehicles.
