Join the event on Women forging change in urban logistics and build a sustainable future
Join us on International Women’s Day, 8th of March – 09:00-10:00 CET, for a virtual breakfast discussion on “Women forging change in urban logistics and build a sustainable future”.
The purpose of the event is to raise awareness of female-led, EU-funded urban logistics innovation projects. Charlotte Migne, Chair of the ALICE Working Group on Urban Logistics, and Lola Ortiz, Chair of the POLIS Working Group on Urban Freight, will co-chair the event, which will include the following speaker line-up:
- Ioanna Fergadiotou, Project Coordinator of URBANE and Technical Coordinator of LEAD
- Paola Cossu, Project Coordinator of DISCO, and Vice Chair of ALICE Working Group on Urban Logistics
- Manon Levrey, Project Coordinator of DECARBOMILE
- Vivian Kiousi, Project Coordinator of GREEN-LOG
The discussion will focus on the following questions:
- Why are there so many women in the driving seat to make urban logistics more sustainable?
- Does this gender proportion help in delivering positive impacts to advance gender equality?
- If so, how can we use this in relation to other transport-related issues?
This event is co-hosted by ALICE and POLIS and is accessible to all practitioners of urban logistics and beyond. For more information on how to register, please follow this link.
