Partnership of MELINDA project is generating innovative solutions for climate friendly mobility of citizens in Alpine Space through user-participation process. The aim is to induce behavioral change and improved policy instruments which will be achieved through:
- Better understanding of user demands in mobility through crowdsourcing
- Participative development of ICT tool for low-carbon citizen mobility
- Generating innovative business models for mobility service providers by involving end-users.
Main result is the implementation of a new model to boost the low carbon mobility behaviours, through the analysis of the factors that impact on the demand and the offer of mobility, using a trans-sectorial and social innovation approach. MELINDA will increase the low carbon mobility options and encourage modal shift, thanks to the availability of new evidences and awareness on both demand and offer side as input for an effective activity of the policy makers and sustainable low carbon behaviours.
