Urban transport is at the heart of global climate action. Yet, discussions on decarbonisation are often dominated by vehicle electrification. While zero- and low-emission technologies are essential, they alone cannot deliver the scale of emissions reductions required.

The greatest opportunity to decarbonise urban mobility lies in reducing dependence on private cars through integrated land-use and transport planning, attractive public transport, and active mobility. Before investing in cleaner vehicle fleets, cities must first create mobility systems that encourage people to choose public transport, walking, and cycling over private car use.

This webinar will explore how cities and regions are placing modal shift at the center of their decarbonisation strategies, while integrating fleet electrification, clean energy, and digital technologies as complementary measures.

Drawing on international experiences and the evolving global climate agenda, including the discussions leading to COP31, participants will gain practical insights into building low-carbon, people-centered urban mobility systems.

What You Will Learn

  • Why modal shift is the most effective long-term strategy for reducing transport emissions.
  • How integrated land-use and transport planning creates accessible, compact, and low-carbon cities.
  • How to design an attractive mobility ecosystem through high-quality public transport, active mobility, and seamless multimodal integration.
  • The role of fleet electrification, clean energy, and digital technologies in supporting—not replacing—modal shift.
  • How cities can align their urban mobility policies with national climate commitments and international decarbonisation goals.

Who is it for?

This webinar is designed for professionals involved in shaping, planning, financing, and delivering low-carbon urban mobility, including:

  • Public transport authorities and operators
  • City and regional governments
  • Urban planners and transport planners
  • National ministries responsible for transport, climate, energy, and urban development
  • Sustainability and decarbonisation specialists
  • Mobility, infrastructure, and energy companies
  • Consultants, researchers, and academic institutions
  • International organizations and development finance institutions
  • Professionals working on active mobility, shared mobility, digital mobility, and multimodal integration
  • Policymakers responsible for climate commitments and sustainable urban development

It will be particularly relevant for cities and organizations seeking to move beyond a vehicle-only approach to decarbonisation and develop integrated, people-centered mobility strategies.
