- Strengthening the institutional capabilities of mediums cities stakeholders on sustainable mobility and implementing pilots to improve public transportation, promote active mobility, generate and manage demand towards low carbon modes, use digitalization tools and other mobility solutions.
- Generating capacities on urban mobility to provide both, public administrations, and private actors with sufficient resources to implement sustainable urban mobility applications.
- Strengthening the coordination mechanisms and develop communications strategies to share practices on sustainable mobility.
In Colombia, ProMOVIS collaborates with other transport and mobility projects, sharing experiences and building over their experiences worldwide and in Colombia, like the TUMI E-bus Mission, the GAP Fund Initiative funded by the European Bank of Investment and the World Bank, building a business plan to facilitate the transition of school buses fleets in Bogota and IKI IMPROVE (funded by BMUV) to support regulatory tools for transport efficiency and decarbonization.
