Transformative Urban Mobility Initiative

Transformative Urban Mobility Initiative (TUMI)

Overview

The Transformative Urban Mobility Initiative (TUMI) is a global implementation initiative on sustainable mobility formed through the union of 11 partners, including SLOCAT , to change mobility for the benefit of people and the environment, with a view to the future.

TUMI supports transport projects all around the world and enables policymakers to transform urban mobility. Its activities are based on three pillars: innovation, knowledge, investment. We support innovative pilot projects around the world. We share knowledge with planners about modern mobility concepts, in workshops and conferences. We invest in the construction and modernisation of sustainable urban infrastructure.
