From Campus to Climate Action: Rethinking Transport for a Greener Future
Sustainable transportation is a key pillar in the global fight against climate change. As countries strive to reduce carbon emissions, the freight transport sector remains one of the most challenging areas to decarbonise. Tackling this issue requires innovative solutions, supportive policy frameworks, and robust cross-border collaboration. Young professionals and future leaders have a crucial role to play in this effort, bringing fresh perspectives and fostering international dialogue on sustainable mobility. Against this backdrop, a dynamic exchange on sustainable freight transport and climate protection was convened at Beijing Transport University on 3 April 2025, bringing together over 100 Chinese students and German experts.
