The LeMesurier project came together one last time in Brussels. Even though it was a final event, the atmosphere felt far from an ending. Partners, colleagues and supporters gathered to look at what the project has built and, more importantly, how its work can continue shaping the way Europe understands progress in zero-emission mobility . UEMI joined the discussions in person through Shruti Raje, who represented our team and shared some of the insights gathered over the pas

The SCALE project, co-funded by the new Horizon Europe Programme, reached its closing moment in Utrecht, bringing together a community of people who have spent the past years exploring what smart and bidirectional charging can mean for Europe’s energy and mobility transitions. UEMI was present at the event, contributing to discussions and connecting experiences from Europe and beyond. One of the strongest messages that emerged is that the technology is ready to move, and peo

Officially, the BOOST project has come to an end. But on the ground, where change truly happens, its work continues. The partnerships, ideas and initiatives it helped build are still growing, led by the people who keep them alive. Even though the project has officially wrapped up, the collaboration between UEMI and its local partners goes on. We believe it’s important to show where and how BOOST continues to make an impact ,  to share the stories that remind us what lasting c

Argentina has just opened a new chapter in digitalisation and sustainable mobility with the launch of ACCESS – Accelerating Access to Low Carbon Urban Mobility Solutions through Digitalization . The project was designed to measurably reduce GHG emissions from passenger and freight transport systems in cities across Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru . Financed by the International Climate Initiative (IKI) of the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature C

In Ecuador, the Courier School has grown into a place where people come to learn, connect and find new possibilities for themselves. What began as a training initiative is now a shared effort led by Grupo Entregas with UTPL, the Ministry of Telecommunications, BID Lab, Sistema B, UNHCR, Rett Foundation, World Vision, MINTEL, ACNUR, Formación Permanente and UEMI. Together, UEMI and the partners support people in vulnerable situations who are looking for a way into the labour

Bogotá has taken an important step in its transition toward cleaner, safer and more efficient public transport.   In collaboration with the eBRT2030 project , funded by the European Union, the city launched the first demonstration of a new generation of electric BRT systems that combine sustainability, automation, and connectivity . This workplaces Bogotá at the centre of a Latin American cluster created to exchange knowledge and build capacity among cities.  Marta Gutiérrez

Electric mobility is changing the way cities move. But this transition can only go as far as the people who shape it, and women need to be part of those decisions, of the innovation, and of the everyday work behind it. At UEMI, this belief is what drives We Drive Change , a global initiative that puts women at the centre of cleaner, smarter and more inclusive mobility systems . At its core, We Drive Change starts from something simple: gender equality is not an add-on to mob

When we talk about mobility, we often think of cars, motorcycles, and buses. And when we mention sustainable mobility, electric vehicles like e-bikes and eBRTs, transport networks, data, and charging points usually come to mind.And that’s all true and there’s nothing wrong with that. But what if we think about who uses these systems? Cities are made of people, the ones taking their children to school, waiting for the bus after a long day, crossing busy streets carrying bags

BOOST is, above all, about people. Professionals landing their first jobs, women breaking barriers in a male-dominated field, and universities opening new doors for future generations. As the project comes to a close, what remains are not just numbers, but lives transformed and skills that will keep growing. BOOST (Boosting e-Mobility Jobs in Africa) , led by UEMI and GIZ, was implemented in Rwanda, Ghana, and Morocco to connect for over nearly two years companies, universiti

Cities are constantly changing, and so are the ways we plan them. A new e-course explores how digital tools can make this process more inclusive, helping people take part in shaping safer and more sustainable urban spaces. Created under the ACCESS project  and inspired by the TRANS-SAFE  and EcoZones initiatives, the course looks at how technology can support collaboration between communities, planners and local governments. It shows that digitalisation isn’t only about inno
