Transformation Towards Sustainable Collective Mobility in Cities and Regions

Hybrid

The way we move and commute in our cities is always changing, driven by our need for livable common spaces and a will to reduce our carbon footprint. New means of transportation and effective systems for mobility are key to developing socially sustainable cities of the future. Join us for a talk and Q&A with company representatives of this transformation process and researchers from the School of Economics and Management and Faculty of Engineering at Lund University.
