DESCRIPTION:The societal role of mobility revolves around accessibility\, 
 since people need to be able to reach a range of activities and destinatio
 ns to fully participate in society. While Work is considered a crucial act
 ivity\, research has shown that limited transportation options can be a ba
 rrier to access workplaces. Several studies highlight the social effects o
 f accessibility inequality. This contribution discusses the development an
 d application of the Integrated Perspective on Accessibility (IPOA) method
 ology in Flanders\; this is a software application that quantifies the mag
 nitude of accessibility inequality between a variety of income groups. Thi
 s method makes it possible to assess the effects of urban development scen
 arios or policy interventions. In general\, IPOA takes a Daily Urban Syste
 m as study area\, and can include various activities (work\, care\, educat
 ion\, shopping and social contacts)\, as well as a range of travel modes (
 walking\, cycling\, public transport and car use). The results of this stu
 dy show that the bike can have a great deal of influence on job accessibil
 ity for people who do not have a car. First\, learning to ride a bike can 
 double the number of jobs one can reach in certain areas. Second\, using a
 n electric bike increases the number of reachable jobs\; this effect is mo
 st pronounced in urban areas. However\, areas with scattered jobs and urba
 n sprawl - such as the region around Kortrijk and Roeselare - have a high 
 increase in reachable jobs as well. In conclusion\, IPOA makes the effects
  of a variety of policies visible for various income groups. The methodolo
 gy represents a paradigm shift towards accessibility justice\, emphasising
  inclusive transport policies that address social equity.
