Aida Mas Baghaie

Aida Mas Baghaie is a Master of Environmental Studies (Planning Program) candidate at York University. Her research focuses on building more equitable cities through community-based participatory planning processes. She has been involved with TCAT since the summer of 2018, where she works on a project to improve active and public transportation integration. In particular, she is creating audits to identify barriers and gaps in infrastructure for those walking or cycling to bus stops and stations. Aida has also been involved with community bike shops and bike co-ops for 5 years, and believes that fostering equity in active transportation requires putting tools in the hands of the community.
