What does shared mobility have to do with social inclusion? Join us on November 16th for our lunchtime webinar to find out!
  • 16. November 2018
    12:30 pm - 1:30 pm

Shared mobility solutions such as car-sharing and ride-sharing can be used as a method for improving accessibility and social inclusion in neighbourhoods, small towns and cities. Join us to hear about innovative concepts for sharing wheelchair-friendly vehicles, ride-sharing services for the elderly and more that allow often quite isolated groups and individuals take part in a normal life and be just as mobile as other citizens.

Speakers will include:

  • Jeffrey Matthijs from the Flemish NGO Autodelen.net, initiator of the AVIRA concept
  • Angelo Meuleman from the Belgian NGO Taxistop, provider of mobility services for the less mobile
  • Gerard van den Bos from the Dutch organisation ANWB AutoMaatje, who coordinate volunteer driving services for less mobile people – a service inspired by Taxistop.

    The webinar will be moderated by Rebecca Karbaumer from the City of Bremen, Germany.

    Participation in the webinar is free.
