I position international development itself largely as a system of mobility. I routinely employ mobilities frameworks and sociomateriality to identify \u201cthe distribution of agency between people, places, and material assemblages of connectivity\u201d (Sheller, 2017) and the role digital education might serve in an increasingly unbundled intersectional environment.

Dr. Erin Moriarty Harrelson investigates (a) how deaf tourists and deaf hosts\/guides connect with each other and experience encounters and differences such as in educational, ethnic and gender status, (b) how they negotiate sameness and differences, as well as inequalities, for instance with regard to financial capital and the ability to travel internationally. Using the lens of translanguaging, Moriarty Harrelson\u2019s research focuses on (a) how International Sign, American Sign Language, written English and\/or other signed and spoken languages are strategically used by deaf hosts and tour guides; (b) how deaf tourists and their guides communicate with people in contexts such as transport or restaurants, and (c) how these instances of communication and modality choices are experienced.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/mobiledeaf.org.uk\/\">Website<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/mobiledeaf?lang=en\">Twitter<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\"><strong>Morris,\u00a0Carwyn<br \/>\n<\/strong>PhD Candidate at London School of Economics, UK<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 12pt\"> <strong>Keywords:\u00a0<\/strong>stillness, migration, digital, spatial, translocal<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 12pt\"> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lse.ac.uk\/geography-and-environment\/people\/phd-students\/carwyn-james-morris\">Website<\/a>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/carwyn\">@carwyn<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\"><strong>Mu\u00f1oz,\u00a0Pablo G\u00f3mez<br \/>\n<\/strong>University of Zaragoza, Spain<strong><br \/>\nKeywords:\u00a0<\/strong>transnational cinema, borders, cosmopolitanism, science fiction, film analysis<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/ccs.filmculture.net\/group-members\/14-pablo-gomez\">Pablo&#8217;s page\u00a0<\/a><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 12pt\"> <a href=\"http:\/\/ccs.filmculture.net\/\">Website<\/a>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%40pablogm_sf&amp;src=typd\">@pablogm_sf<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\"><strong>Murray, Lesley<br \/>\n<\/strong>University of Brighton and Cosmobilities, UK<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 12pt\"> <strong>Keywords:\u00a0<\/strong>Gendered Mobilities, Generational mobilities, Mobile methods, Visual methods, Streets<strong><br \/>\nBiography:<\/strong>\u00a0Lesley Murray is an Associate Professor in Social Science at the University of Brighton, , where her research centres around urban mobilities.

Rafael is broadly interested in social and spatial inequalities related to transport accessibility, active travel and human mobility patterns. Rafael&#8217;s doctoral research concentrates on questions of distributive justice and transportation equity. It focuses on the role of transport policies\/investments on the shaping of social and spatial inequalities in access to opportunities. The methodology developed in the thesis contributes to accessibility measurement in multimodal transport networks using GTFS data to assess the accessibility impacts of transportation policies in both ex-post evaluations of implemented projects but also in ex-ante scenario analysis of projects in their early planning stages. The research is grounded on contemporary philosophical theories of justice and it further develops on case studies that discuss the equity implications of the transport legacies from sports mega-events in Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), investigating who benefited from the new transport developments in the city. Rafael holds a MSc in Demography from University of Campinas (Unicamp) and a BSc in Sociology from University of Brasilia (UnB), both in Brazil.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.tsu.ox.ac.uk\/img\/titles\/logo-tsu.png\">Website<\/a><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 12pt\">Facebook:\u00a0https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/rafa.pereira.br<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 12pt\">Tel:\u00a0+5561999070512<br \/>\n<a class=\"ProfileHeaderCard-screennameLink u-linkComplex js-nav\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/UrbanDemog\"><span class=\"username u-dir\" dir=\"ltr\">@UrbanDemog<\/span>\u00a0<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\"><strong>Petzer,\u00a0Brett<br \/>\n<\/strong>T\u00b2M, Netherlands\u00a0<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><strong>Keywords:\u00a0<\/strong>transport justice, public goods, sharing economy, cycling-as-a-service<strong><br \/>\nBiography:\u00a0<\/strong>I am a PhD candidate researching bikeshare and the integration of bikes into mobility services in the contemporary urban Netherlands<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/brettpetzer.com\/\">Website<\/a><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 12pt\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%40brettpetzer&amp;src=typd\"> @brettpetzer<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\"><strong>Piglia, Melina<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 12pt\"> Universidad de Mar del Plata\/ National Scientific and Technical\u00a0Research Council (CONICET),\u00a0T\u00b2M<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 12pt\"> <strong>Keywords<\/strong>: aeromobility, automcobility, history, tourism, experience<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 12pt\"> <strong>Biography<\/strong>: I have a degree and a Doctorate in History at Universidad de Buenos Aires (Argentina) and I am currently a Professor at Universidad de Mar del Plata.

I have broadened and deepened my research in this area over the past 20 years through my books Democracy After Slavery (University Press of Florida, 2000, CHOICE award 2002), Consuming the Caribbean (Routledge, 2003), Citizenship from Below (Duke University Press, 2012), and Aluminum Dreams (MIT Press, 2014), as well as dozens of articles in prominent historical and areas studies journals. My most recent work addresses Caribbean climate change in relation to colonial histories and alternative visions for resilience and reconstruction after disasters, through a series of articles and my forthcoming book Island Futures: Caribbean Survival in the Anthropocene (Duke University Press, 2019). Partly as a result of the work I began in Caribbean Studies, I turned to the development of a new field of mobilities when I was at Lancaster University, where I co-founded the Centre for Mobilities Research with John Urry, and the journal Mobilities with John and Kevin Hannam. My work in the field especially analyzes how power is exercised through mobility regimes and uneven infrastructures that (re)produce social inequalities. I helped to define this field through highly cited foundational articles such as \u201cThe New Mobilities Paradigm\u201d (Sheller &amp; Urry 2006), \u201cMobilities, Immobilities Moorings\u201d (Hannam, Sheller &amp; Urry 2006), and \u201cThe City and the Car\u201d (Sheller and Urry 2000). Beginning in the early 2000s I brought together scholarship in the field in a series of co-edited books,\u00a0Tourism Mobilities (Sheller &amp; Urry, 2004), Mobile Technologies of the City (Sheller &amp; Urry 2006), Routledge Handbook of Mobilities (Adey, Bissell, Hannam, Merriman, Sheller 2014), and Mobility and Locative Media (De Souza e Silva &amp; Sheller 2015). This year I have published the book Mobility Justice: The Politics of Movement in an Age of Extremes (Verso, 2018), the first major theoretical work on this concept, as well as a co-edited collection, Mobilities and Complexities (Routledge, 2018). I also have a growing body of work on mobile media and the intersections of social science with the arts. I co-edited two special issues for leading journals in this field, Public Art Dialogue (2015, with Freeman) and Leonardo Electronic Almanac (2016, with Iverson), growing out of an art exhibition of \u201cmobile art\u201d (using digital media and augmented reality formats).<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/drexel.edu\/coas\/faculty-research\/faculty-directory\/sheller-mimi\/\">Website<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Shinozaki,\u00a0Kyoko<\/strong><br \/>\nUniversity of Salzburg, Austria<br \/>\n<strong>Biography<\/strong>: Kyoko Shinozaki is Professor of Sociology with a focus on &#8220;Social Change and Mobilities&#8221; at the Paris Lodron University of Salzburg.
