EcoMobility Days 2016 Report
We have summarised the EcoMobility Days in this report where we wish to convey the innovation and enthusiasm that emerged throughout the event. Cities demonstrated during these five days their great commitment to ecomobility. Alliance cities and local governments from across the world presented their efforts delivering sustainable urban mobility in their specific context.
Participants of the EcoMobility Days 2016 explored the challenges to finance sustainable urban mobility and implement mobility in the context of the Sustainable Development Goals. A great number of critical topics were covered during the conference, including clean vehicles and clean air in cities, as well as safe and healthy routes to school. Finally, taking advantage of the great attendance of the conference by Latin American cities, participants also had the opportunity to hear from specific ecomobility efforts in these cities on topics such as active mobility and public transport.
