Free Webinar: Affordable housing & just mobility πποΈ
Housing affordability is often discussed in terms of rents, purchase prices, or construction costs. Yet an important component of the true cost of living is frequently overlooked: mobility.
Across Europe, the way neighbourhoods are designed β including parking requirements, car-oriented planning standards, and the distance to daily services β shapes how people move and how much they spend on transport. For many households, mobility costs represent a significant and often hidden burden.
This upcoming webinar will bring together European policymakers, researchers, and practitioners to discuss how aligning housing and mobility policies can help make affordable living a reality across Europe. The discussion will explore how planning decisions related to public space, accessibility, and proximity can reduce long-term costs for households while supporting more sustainable mobility patterns.
