Webinar "Exploring Micromobility: An Online Workshop on Walking, Cycling, and Active Mobility"

Edited on 08/03/2024

On 13th March 2024 from 9.00 to 12.00 CET PUMA network is organising an online webinar about micromobility.

 

Mobility is a very important service, which should be provided to all citizens, regardless of their welfare level, education, social status, gender or other characteristics.

 

Despite urban mobility trends in the 21st century, small and medium European cities lack a well developed public transportation system, cycling and walking is not very popular transportation type due to the convenience provided by the private car. It leads to high CO2 emissions, noise and air pollution, and there is a lack of citizen engagement. If there is no action, soon these cities will also keep facing pressure for car-focused planning and cities can become less attractive to tourists, inhabitants, entrepreneurs and people in general.

 

Micromobility can help to improve this situation.

 

Open to a wider public
