Eight rural and peripheral regions in Europe prepared, implemented and evaluated a local AMC-campaign. Existing approaches, such as the “active mobility consultancy” (AMC)-campaign implemented 2011 by BOKU in Lower Austria and campaigns carried out by partners such as UOY, VRS, AGENEAL and AUTh were further developed in SmartMove based on exchange of experiences and mutual learning.
This included:
The result is an easy to use AMC-concept that can be applied by PT operators all over Europe. Thereby, the Project contributes to solve main problems of PT schemes in rural areas.
The key outputs of SmartMove:
Our team was a horizontal partner and worked on different measures for quality assurance at all consultancy stages. We were responsible for the concepts and content for training and knowledge transfer within the team, i.e. the implementation partners and the multipliers. We participated in learning workshops at the transnational and local level as well as in transferability workshops. Contributions to dissemination were also within the scope of our work.
