Mobility is a lifelong journey. From a child taking their first independent journey to school, to a young person cycling across their neighbourhood, an older adult navigating public spaces, or a person with reduced mobility accessing essential services, every stage of life brings different experiences, opportunities and challenges.
This webinar explores the circle of mobility: how cities can create transport systems that work for everyone by involving citizens in shaping them. Through inspiring examples from the EIT Urban Mobility network, including Nicosia, Utrecht and Barcelona, participants will discover how engaging people across the life course leads to more inclusive, accessible and people-centred mobility solutions.
