At our final conference we present our research approach and findings, and explore policy implications and future implementations for creating walking-friendly neighbourhoods. Based on our research findings we will also discuss the transferability of research methods, outcomes and policy implications to other European countries beyond the cities studied. In WalkUrban we investigated objective and perceived walkability in six neighbourhoods in three European cities: Genoa in Italy, Dortmund in Germany, and Gothenburg in Sweden.
We invite both practitioners and academics from different European countries to participate in our conference.
We look forward to seeing you next spring, either online or in Dortmund!
The conference will take place on Wednesday 6th March 2024 (hybrid) and Thursday 7th March 2024 (in-person) at the ILS- Institute for Regional and Urban Development in Dortmund, Germany.
