The call falls under the "Safe, Resilient Transport and Smart Mobility services for passengers and goods" Destination, which contributes to the development of user-centric mobility technologies for smart, inclusive, and resilient transportation systems.
Effective governance, policies, and incentives are pivotal in shaping sustainable and just transportation systems. Policies should address aspects such as gender, location, and the impact on low-income households. Additionally, the COVID-19 crisis has triggered a notable shift in commuting habits, emphasizing remote work and flexible arrangements.
The broader consequences of these changes, particularly on greenhouse gas emissions and the real estate market, present an opportunity for significant positive environmental outcomes. Applicants should take into consideration these aspects when submitting their proposals.
