What will it take to have walkable communities?

LAST Thursday, I was asked to speak at a Walkability Summit organized at the University of Asia and the Pacific on the above topic. Philippine urban environments generally have poor walkability — narrow or no sidewalks, paths that are obstructed or filled with holes and hazards, and motor vehicle drivers who ignore pedestrians, even those at zebra crossings. The solutions have less to do with technical or engineering matters; rather, the fundamental constraints are mainly social and political.
