This paper introduces a general framework for mobility design for low-income local communities at Mexico City that has a humanistic approach and strong appreciation of cultural factors, particularly the ones present in activities and practices that shape the local way of life. Recent studies of sustainable mobility are dominated by economic and environmental approaches. The social dimension is gaining increasing attention for addressing such issues as inequity of transport affordability and access. More recently, problems such as westernization, cultural erosion and collapse of traditional values are raising strong concerns, and culture has started to be explicitly considered in sustainability models. The paper discusses the concepts of sustainability, mobility design and culture, and sets an approach of sustainable development that suits the community scale. It then explores the realm of social sciences in order to assess mobility issues from a people-oriented perspective. Finally, after proposing a socio-cultural approach of mobility design, some particular social and cultural traits of the Mexican society -which may become design knowledge for future projects-, are presented.
