Moving people, not cars

Sustainable future urbanisms depend on the capacity of urban systems to ensure affordable and seamless transport. How can moving from one place to another become environmentally friendly, intuitive, safe, easy, affordable and predictable, while involving local communities and groups?

One of challenges of India’s rapid urbanisation is to enhance the capacity and capability of its urban systems and city infrastructure to ensure that people are able to move from one place to another in an affordable, sustainable and seamless manner. This challenge needs to involve urban communities and groups, civil society organisations in evolving solutions that are appropriate for the local level. The key questions discussed in the panel are: How can moving from one place to another in an expanding Indian city become environmentally friendly, intuitive, safe, easy, affordable and predictable, while involving local communities and groups? c How can the urban needs, innovative spirit and entrepreneurial energy of India be connected with the robust ideas of sustainability and resilience, technologies and business models of Sweden and the Nordic world?
