In order to find effective and cutting-edge projects that aim to decarbonize urban transportation and hasten the adoption of active, shared, collective, and/or electric mobility, EIT Digital and EIT Climate-KIC are launching the Sustainable Cities Climate Impact Challenge for European cities.
The challenge, sponsored by FedEx, aims to create a more sustainable future by scaling up creative ideas to lessen smog, noise, and traffic in the world’s cities with the greatest population growth. According to the goals of the European Green Deal, Urban Mobility Framework, and EU Cities Mission, this initiative tends to promote the shift to cleaner, greener, and smarter mobility.

Eligibility
