Abstract

Engagement in sustainable mobility planning seems to act as a starting point to unlock a new era of responsible and sustainable behaviors. After almost a two-years experience of a global crisis (COVID-19) revealing that the only way out is through jointly walking on the way into sustainability and resilience, engaging people in shifting to sustainable mobility options has become an imperative need. The current paper exploits Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) in building a methodological 5-step framework for evaluating the transferability potentials of good practices (GPs) in citizens’ sensibilization and engagement in sustainable mobility. 10 good practices were selected in order to cover the whole cycle of sustainable mobility planning (SUMP cycle) while representatives from different EU Regions were involved in the assessment procedure resulting in this way in a general transferability guide. The guide, tailored to each case, can be a very useful tool in the hands of single authorities while making their mobility engagement plan.
