The event is geared towards urban practitioners with an interest and first-hand experience in sustainable urban mobility and climate change. This includes representatives of cities and projects focusing on the management of urban mobility/transport as well as representatives of different stakeholder groups, such as local government and administration, private business, civil society, and science and research. Related networks from the region are also welcome. All participants are expected to engage proactively in the practitioners’ workshop by presenting their experience, showcasing examples of good practices in their municipality and/or identifying concrete challenges they face.
