Urban mobility is an essential component of people's everyday activities, and is directly affected by the rapid increase in the urban population, unplanned urbanization, and the changing socioeconomic conditions. It is a major determinant of quality of life, public transit, employment, education and health care. Furthermore, having access to efficient urban mobility systems remains one of the fundamental issues for policy makers, especially in large cities and densely populated neighborhoods. To address some of these challenges, shared mobility – urban planning nexus offers opportunities for enabling spaces for collaborative urban planning and governance practices. Such nexus can serve as a vehicle to explore the changing dynamics of urban challenges during which experimentation is used to inform urban practice. Our session focuses on how the application of this approach in cities can contribute to the sustainable transitions of urban mobility systems while promoting active mobility and energy transition in public transport.
