Improving Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans and Measures in the Mediterranean. A 3 years’ Interreg MED project approved on 2016 on environmental sustainability.

Go-SUMP is targeting the challenges of capitalisation and mainstreaming of projects’ results and solutions for sustainable mobility in the Mediterranean at transnational level, which was obvious during the last programming period of the MED Programme.

Using a specialized partnership as backbone of the working structure, GO SUMP will work to solve the gap of sustainable mobility as a part of urban planning, by guiding and supporting modular projects as a community, to improve the visibility, capitalization and mainstreaming of their results through joint strategies based on synergies and networking. GO SUMP will act as a bridge among the Med Programme and projects, and the stakeholders for their communication and capitalization through key thematic groups such as Civitas, Eltis, the SUMP Platform or the Covenant of Mayors.

By capitalizing on good and especially bad practices, the horizontal project, will contribute to a unique identity for SUMPs in the Med cities enhancing its peculiarities as a key to implementing low-carbon transport & mobility measures. The role of the AMB, acting as General Secretariat of MedCities, is to actively participate in the animation of a community of Mediterranean actors to create synergies among the projects and contribute to the communication and capitalization of their results.
