INCLUDES Interreg Europe newsletter

Welcome to the second INCLUDES Interreg Europe newsletter! We're excited to have you with us.

Over the past months, INCLUDES staff have been busy working together. We have created a stakeholder engagement ABC, finalized the regional status quo reports, started mapping good practices on physical accessibility in transport and mobility, and started assessing the policy relevance of identified good practices. Stakeholders have been engaged in all regions, with the focus of learning on the first INCLUDES theme, physical accessibility. We also had our second interregional exchange of experience event and study visit in Bologna, Italy, with partners and stakeholders alike.


All this is just the start. Looking ahead, we will continue to delve into the various facets of mobility inclusion. We’ll share the findings of our first thematic report on physical accessibility soon, as well as some stakeholder involvement highlights. We will continue our interregional learning efforts both online, in-person and in conferences. Enjoy our newsletter and stay tuned for more!


Best regards,

Discover the INCLUDES Regional status quo reports

What’s the reality of inclusive mobility in the six INCLUDES partner regions? The INCLUDES Regional status quo reports build a shared evidence base for learning and action and they are now available to everyone.


Each report offers a concise regional snapshot of where things stand when it comes to inclusion in mobility, and where change is needed. The reports maps current policies, strategies, infrastrucure and services, and point to the barriers people might face when moving around, including physical, digital and financial accessibility. Just as importantly, they highlights promising practices and key gaps that will steer both excahnge of experience and peer learning, and help partners shape stronger, more inclusive mobility policies.
