Committees & Working Groups
Welcome to the heart of UITP – where as a member you can collaborate with global expert peers to share knowledge, shape policy, and advance public transport.
What do UITP’s Committees & Working Groups do?
As the driving force of the world’s largest global public transport community, Committees & Working Groups are where public transport professionals collaborate on the key challenges and opportunities facing the sector.
In a Committee, you can:
- Network with expert peers.
- Share and learn global best practices.
- Form specialised working groups on topics that matter to you.
- Explore behind the scenes of public transport networks across the world.

I am not yet a UITP Member, how can I get involved?

If you’re interested in joining UITP to participate in our Committees, contact us or set a meeting with our membership team!
Who can join a Committee or Working Group?
For all Committees, selection is based on diversity criteria to ensure that the group is representative, as well as the professional profile of the candidate.
For modal Committees, such as Bus, members can only join if their organisation operates that mode.
Similarly, stakeholder Committees like Public Transport and Mobility Authorities are only open to authorities.
How often do Committees & Working Groups meet?
Committee & Working Group members meet for dedicated meetings at least twice a year, with one online meeting and one in-person meeting.
And of course, all members get a chance to come together at the UITP Summit every year!
How many Committees & Working Groups can you join?
All UITP members are a part of at least two Committees & Working Groups; their regional Division and their specific field of activity.
