CulturalRoad and Diversify-CCAM are joining forces for a joint webinar on 22 April 2026, from 14:00 to 14:45 CEST.

As automated and connected mobility continues to evolve across Europe, ensuring that these solutions reflect the needs of diverse communities is becoming increasingly important. The webinar will explore how inclusion can be embedded from the early stages of design and planning, highlighting the role of community engagement and participatory approaches in shaping future mobility systems.

Bringing together perspectives from the two projects, the session will provide an overview of how European projects are working to better understand user needs, address diversity, and support more inclusive deployment of automated mobility solutions.
