According to UN, by 2050, two in three people will live in urban areas, adding another 2.5 billion citizens to towns and cities. And while urban growth is often linked to economic success, there is an increasing call for cities to tackle global warming, reduce their emissions and ultimately improve the quality of life. In this context, EELISA on-the-MOVE aims to create a multidisciplinary community to address the challenge of creating sustainable and inclusive cities through mobility planning. This means the Community generates interaction between students, educators, researchers, and external actors. Based on real projects, EELISA on-the-MOVE develops innovative teaching and co-creates efficient, green and state-of-the-art technological solutions for better cities, through smart mobility planning.
