PDF agenda

The iTEM4 workshop was supported by funding from the ClimateWorks Foundation, and was comprised of sessions on:

  • New methods and models for projecting transport demand,
  • Autonomous, shared and micro-mobility,
  • Freight & international passenger transport,
  • Trucking & diesel vehicles, and
  • New data sources and community database efforts.

Workshop participants included academic groups at universities and independent research organizations, departments within national governments, international government organizations (IGOs), non-governmental organizations (NGOs), energy industry firms, and consultancies.
