PUMA project: one year on board – where are we now?

A year and a half ago, we set out on a journey to help cities across 8 European countries rethink urban mobility. The idea was simple: work together, share knowledge, and build sustainable solutions through Integrated Action Plans. Fast forward eighteen months, and we find ourselves at a crucial checkpoint.

So, what’s been achieved so far? What’s proving more complicated than expected? And most importantly, where do we go from here? Let’s take a deep dive into the first year of PUMA - the wins, the roadblocks, and the next steps.

Empowering Immigrant Women through Sustainable Mobility: A Pathway to Community Integration in Cento

Nestled in the Emilia-Romagna region of northern Italy, the town of Cento exudes a rich cultural tapestry woven from its historical roots and the vibrant contributions of its immigrant population. From its ancient Roman origins as "Cesentum" to its Renaissance splendour, Cento is renowned for its architectural treasures, elegant churches, and bustling piazzas that reflect centuries of cultural heritage. Today, Cento maintains its allure as a welcoming community where diversity flourishes, with foreigners comprising 11.3% of its residents as of January 2023.
