COURSE OBJECTIVE:
This course aims to provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of sustainable mobility and smart transport systems in urban environments. It will explore the key concepts and technologies that contribute to creating efficient, eco-friendly, and accessible transport networks in cities. Participants will learn about the principles of sustainable mobility, including the integration of public transport, cycling, walking, and electric vehicles, with a focus on reducing emissions, improving air quality, and promoting social inclusion.
The course will also cover the role of smart transport systems, such as intelligent traffic management, data analytics, and real-time monitoring, in enhancing the efficiency, safety, and sustainability of urban transport networks. Participants will explore best practices from cities around the world and understand how technological innovations, policy frameworks, and stakeholder collaboration are essential in developing smart, sustainable transport solutions.
By the end of the course, participants will have the knowledge to assess, design, and implement sustainable mobility strategies and smart transport solutions in urban settings, contributing to the creation of more livable, resilient, and environmentally friendly cities.

- Q&A and wrap-up
This course programme blends theoretical insights with practical applications, providing participants with the tools to design and implement sustainable and smart transport systems in urban environments. The interactive workshops and case studies will enable participants to develop strategies tailored to the unique needs and challenges of their cities.
Module: Workshops in groups
An online course is an excellent opportunity to broaden your knowledge. However, we recognise that a significant value of courses lies in the exchange of experiences among participants. This requires a certain level of openness and willingness to collaborate, which can sometimes only be fully unlocked through face-to-face interaction and the use of appropriate workshop solutions. That is why the programme for in-person courses includes 'Workshops in groups using real documents and a selected workshop format,' lasting approximately 90 minutes. These workshops are conducted during the second part of the course.
COURSE METHOLODOGY:
The course combines theoretical knowledge with practical application through interactive lectures, case studies, discussions, and workshops. Participants will engage in real-world examples and learn how to design sustainable transport solutions.
