If you’re interested in civic engagement in the mobility transition, read this new-ish paper by Viktoria Allert & Gerhard Reese. It’s all about how the car-centric system makes it difficult to fight against it & what we need to overcome it:

Creating a common social identity, belief in collective efficacy & strong in-group norms & goals are important for participation in collective action for sustainable mobility.

The #European automotive sector faces a critical turning point due to technological advances and rising competition. In response, the #EU launched a Strategic Dialogue on its future in January 2025, followed by an Action Plan in March. The plan aims to boost competitiveness and sustainability by focusing on five key areas: innovation, clean #mobility, supply chain resilience, skills development, and a competitive #business environment. Key measures include promoting electric vehicle (#EV) battery production, advancing #autonomous vehicle #technology, and enhancing clean mobility #accessibility through incentives. The Commission also aims to secure raw materials for the sector and streamline regulatory processes. A collaborative European Connected and Autonomous Vehicle Alliance will foster innovation. Funding initiatives like Horizon #Europe and the Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Facility will support these transitions.
