Inclusive digitalisation of urban mobility transitions in Norway?
Time: 14:00-15:30, Monday, 26th April 2021, Stavanger (online)
Norway is among the world leaders on digitalisation, with a fully digitalised electric grid, rapid diffusion of electric vehicles, and high penetration of digital mobility platforms. These changes are transforming our cities in ways that have uncertain, socially differentiated impacts. Does digitalisation compromise our privacy to benefit the companies that offer new mobility solutions? Does it unlock rapid new pathways for low-emission urban mobility? The possibilities are open, and the need of the hour is to think across sectors as we govern the rapidly evolving urban mobility landscape. This seminar features cross-sectoral experts who will take us through the implications of the digital transition for socially inclusive mobility transitions in our cities in Norway.
