The Final Conference of the Urban Transports Community will be the occasion to present the work done and the results achieved in the last three years.

It will involve experts contributing on the topics of Decarbonisation of mobility and Resilience against Climate Change as well as on Sustainable Mobility Planning and Innovation in Mediterranean cities.

The final conference will also be the occasion to discover what the cities participating in our Community's Mentorship programme have accomplished by being engaged in an exclusive dialogue with a selected group of cities from the Urban Transports Community, who pioneered sustainable urban mobility solutions in different fields.

More information and the agenda will follow.

Insights into the Urban Transports Community's first high-level workshop in Brussels // May 11, 2022

The first high-level workshop was focused on sustainable mobility solutions for a greener & better experience living and visiting the Mediterranean. It gathered 40 participants from European institutions and organisations, as well as Mediterranean-centred entities. Some of these biggest upcoming challenges awaiting European Cities in the months and years to come like the Green Deal and the Cities Mission were discussed. It was the occasion to discuss the main challenges that the Mediterranean faces in terms of mobility, all the more for cities that are dependant on the third sector - and in particular tourism.

COVID-19 impacted them and adaption is needed both in terms of policies and in terms of resilient and sustainable urban mobility systems. Mediterranean cities and tourist destinations have the potential to provide best practices on how to build an active mobility in the urban space for all - pedestrians, cyclists and other individuals who may not want to use private cars.

The Urban Transports Community goes local! 

Back in December 2021, CIVINET CY-EL organised a side-session during its first conference devoted to the first Urban Transports' policy brief (here in French) on active mobility, issued few weeks before the event. The event was aimed to mainstream policy recommendations about soft mobility, it attracted a rich audience of stakeholders and local authorities. The main conclusions and points of interest turned around the need to support municipalities to implement and expand soft mobility projects.

The first months of 2022 have seen two more events organised by the partnership in this series of regional workshops and debates, with the same vision of bringing the learnings and recommendations of the community to a territorial level.
