The CIVITAS Forum makes its return with a dynamic three-day conference, serving as the flagship event of the CIVITAS Initiative. Since its creation in 2003, the CIVITAS Forum has become an essential platform for participants to learn from leaders and experts of sustainable and smart mobility. It also promotes the sharing of ideas and helps build relationships among important players involved in transforming urban mobility across Europe.
The CIVITAS Forum 2024 will take place in the picturesque city of Parma, Italy, from 1-3 October 2024. It will focus on how the CIVITAS community is shaping the future of urban mobility and contributing to the mobility renaissance! Typically attracting around 600 attendees, the conference will see participation from a diverse group of stakeholders including city representatives, policymakers, practitioners, planners, academics, and mobility enthusiasts.
The CIVITAS Initiative helps cities across Europe to implement and test innovative and integrated strategies which address energy, transport and environmental objectives.
