SUMP Kits, SUMP Glossary and SUMP Self-Assessment tool produced by CH4LLENGE

The SUMP kits address the four most pressing challenges in the development and implementation of Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans: participation, cooperation, measure identification and monitoring and evaluation. They contain a quick-facts brochure, as well a comprehensive manual and e-learning courses inviting interested mobility practitioners to learn more about sustainable urban mobility planning at their own pace and from anywhere in the world.

Advice contained in the Kits is based on the knowledge and experience of the project’s nine partner cities and eight knowledge partners, including lessons drawn from the cities’ pilot schemes.  Soon all kits will be also available in Czech, Croatian, Dutch, French, German, Hungarian, Polish and Romanian.

The SUMP Kits have been developed in the CH4LLENGE project, which is co-funded by the European Commission’s Intelligent Energy Europe Programme and has the overall aim to facilitate the take-up of SUMPs throughout Europe. Further SUMP resources prepared in the context of CH4LLENGE include a SUMP Glossary and a SUMP Self-Assessment tool that enables planning authorities to assess their plan’s compliance with the EU’s SUMP Guidelines. They can also be used for free.
