Sustainable Mobility, defined as, green, efficient, safe and universally accessible movement of individuals and goods and services from point to point. Sustainable Mobility may be a nascent sector that’s gaining momentum.
Like Energy, mobility may be a fundamental catalyst for any economy. Mobility solutions are a prerequisite of social inclusion by providing access to jobs and essential services like health care and education.
Developing countries, and particularly Sub-Saharan Africa , host 98% of the 1 billion people within the world without access to move . Yet a further 187 million Africans are expected to measure in cities over subsequent decade, suggesting 1.5 million people will move to cities every month[1].
