Description

Sustainable mobility enables eco-friendly, accessible, and efficient transportation through low-emission solutions, active transit options, intelligent infrastructure, and supportive policies, all aimed at reducing pollution, enhancing user-friendliness, and improving quality of life. In this frame, technical standardization is essential for ensuring interoperability across diverse systems and technologies within this complex landscape. Thus, this awareness session will provide an overview of sustainable mobility and the pivotal role of technical standardization in driving its development.
