"Cultures and climates differ all over the world, but people are the same... They’ll gather in public if you give them a good place to do it" - Jan Gehl #RethinkMaleCity

Mobility is multimodal. When streets are designed for vehicles first, people are forced to adapt — stepping over bikes, waiting in traffic, squeezing through danger. A walkable city isn’t about slowing cars. It’s about letting everyone move! Walkable cities = healthier cities.

Fire and flood are Malé’s most common hazards. Flood incidents cluster in specific areas — notably between the Old City and the Reclaimed Area. Repeated risk highlights the need for targeted resilience, better infrastructure, and safer land-use decisions. #RethinkMaleCity

Healthy cities allocate 30–35% of land to roads. Malé has just 16%. Greater Malé runs 119,472 vehicles against a sustainable capacity of 89,413. Malé’s streets can efficiently support only 16,515 vehicles. Mobility needs rethinking. #RethinkMaleCity

How walkable is Malé ? Within a 200m radius, we mapped schools & mosques, key daily destinations. But while access exists, capacity doesn’t. Schools enroll 26,819 students for 20,678 seats. Cities must plan for people, not just maps. (Data: MoE, 2024) #RethinkMaleCity
