Training materials

MobiliseYourCity Training Materials Catalogue

To scale and facilitate the capacity-building process, MobiliseYourCity developed a full catalogue of training materials, encapsulating the most important knowledge about sustainable urban mobility planning. We worked together with implementing partners (the Agence Française de Développement and the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit), Knowledge and Network partners (ADEME, Cerema and ITDP) and consultancies (Egis, Ifeu and Transitec) worldwide to identify and put together the most important trainings and topics that are commonly addressed when working on sustainable urban mobility.

The training catalogue consists of individual training modules, each dealing with a specific topic related to the sustainable urban mobility planning process. These training materials include all the elements and tools a trainer needs to organise, prepare and deliver a training session, from PowerPoint presentations to exercises and additional resources for participants.

If you are interested in accessing our training materials, please get in contact with the MobiliseYourCity Secretariat for any level of support: contact@mobiliseyourcity.net
