Overview
The Institute’s mission is to design and implement high-quality transport systems and policy solutions that make cities around the world more livable, equitable, and sustainable. The Institute works to scale up sound urban planning policies for cities in India, China, Latin America, and Africa, in ways that reduce greenhouse gas emissions and advance economic development and quality of life. One of its global priorities is the Mobility Analytics Partnership, a set of metrics for governments, institutions, and non-governmental organizations to track the commitments for transport within the Paris Agreement and the Sustainable Development Goals.
