Sustainable Urban Mobility

Abstract

The current chapter aims to introduce and familiarize young people (the potential policy makers of tomorrow) with basic notions and principles of urban mobility, show them the challenges, educate them on sustainable urban mobility planning and motivate them to become active agents of change. The topics covered are (1) EU actions on supporting urban mobility, (2) The modern approach on mobility planning—Sustainable Urban Mobility Planning and (3) The participatory approach of mobility planning. Rather than treating exhaustively the subject, success is consider if at the end of the current chapter reading and the conduction of the self-assessment exercises, the reader will have obtained a flavour of the particular topic and will be interested in searching and learning more for sustainable mobility.
