What we are doing
The European Mobility Week (EMW) project guides and aggregates volunteer local action for EcoMobility. This campaign in Korea accelerates sustainable mobility actions at the local level by voluntarily setting cities’ plan of weekly activities and permanent policy change.
The one week campaign helps local governments to raise citizens’ awareness about sustainable mobility and its effects and linkage with climate change and contribution to sustainable development. Activities within the campaign include the creation of regional forums around sustainable mobility, educational programming, and car-free days for public offices. These activities often draw media attention, which can add to the citizen's awareness and participation.
