Accessible Transportation Around the World

Access Exchange International (AEI) is a non-governmental organization promoting accessible public transport for persons with disabilities and seniors in Latin America, Africa, Asia, and eastern Europe.

This site will expand with more information on advocacy, planning, and implementation of inclusive bus, rail, taxi, and other transport services.

AEI promotes both accessible design of pedestrian infrastructure and transport systems and the accessible operation of such systems in a user-friendly and safe manner. Visit our “International resources and web links” section for information on AEI resources and other helpful publications and links. Our Newsletters section gives you the latest information on events and trends in our field.

AEI provides workshops and helps lead events such as this training seminar in accessible transport sponsored by the Government of China and United Nations ESCAP.
