ACT4DYS: Enable People with Disabilities and Youth to Act for Sustainable Cities

ACTDYS is an initiative that will aim to transform urban mobility into a more inclusive and accessible experience for young people, with a focus on people with disabilities and people dependent on alternative transportation means. It will raise awareness around the challenges of urban mobility. At the same time the project will encourage and actively involve youth to help fight against climate change and make cities more sustainable and inclusive.

ACT4DYS will address urban environmental challenges, accessibility and inclusion for youth with disabilities and bridging policy, research, and practise.

To address the above and achieve its objectives the project will raise awareness of sustainable urban development and promote alternative transportation to create greener and more inclusive cities; develop innovative training materials and tools, including simulation-based training for youth workers, to foster disability-inclusive urban development and enhance accessibility in public spaces; and engage stakeholders and create a Policy Paper with recommendations to support inclusive and sustainable urban development.
