CHARTER
UITP launched a Charter on Sustainable Development in 2003 to increase awareness within the sector on the importance of this issue and to recognize the commitment of UITP members. Only UITP members may sign the charter to make a voluntary but measurable commitment to monitor, measure and report on their own performance.
The signatories have developed the following definition of sustainable development and public transport:
| |
- Taking decisions understanding the impact and determining a good balance in terms of: |
| |
|
- Social Justice |
| |
|
- Environmental Protection |
| |
|
- Economic Sense |
| |
|
| |
- Sustainable development is how you plan for the future while still operating in the now |
UITP’s Commission on Sustainable Development manages the charter process.
All charter signatories may send a representative to the working group meetings but membership of the UITP Commission on Sustainable Development is by invitation only.
Coaching and Training workshops are held twice a year in Brussels, Belgium.
