Step into someone else's shoes... or in this case, someone else's wheels. "Planners on Wheels" is not just an activity; it's a transformative experience designed to give participants a firsthand understanding of the daily challenges faced by persons with disabilities in Pasig City. As future urban planners and city shapers, their mission is to see the city from a new perspective and to help build a more inclusive and accessible future for all.

The participants' task is to navigate the bustling streets of Pasig City, a vibrant business hub and a concrete jungle, from the seat of a wheelchair. Participants will be experiencing the city's infrastructure—its sidewalks, roads, and public spaces—in a way they never have before. This isn't a race; it's a journey of discovery and empathy.

Participants were divided into groups, and each group will be assigned a wheelchair. As participants traverse the city, they were keen observers. They took note of the obstacles, the smooth paths, the moments of frustration, and the instances of surprising accessibility. Photos and videos were taken to document their journey.

Using the Pedestrian Perception and Satisfaction Google Form (through the QR code and link provided on the ⬅️ left side of this section), participants rated the accessibility and disability-responsiveness of Pasig City's infrastructure. Their collective feedback provided invaluable data for future urban development projects.

This activity went beyond data collection. It was about shifting the perspective from simply building cities to building communities where everyone, regardless of their physical abilities, can move freely, safely, and with dignity.

The groups were tasked with writing a letter to Pasig City LGU, outlining their experiences and discoveries from the activity.
