Sober Cities, with Charlotte Halpern

Welcome to the first episode of the environmental transformation series of the Sciences Po’s podcast “Conversations with Sergei Guriev”. In this series, Sergei Guriev talks with our best researchers to understand the fundamental issues of environmental transition. Let’s start with the decisive role of cities in building a sober world. Cities are the main sources of pollution, but they also are the major actors for struggling against it. What are the challenges ? How to meet them ? Can cities be sober and low-carbon?  Whereas cities are so different from each other, how can we devise common solutions? How to combine solutions to be implemented immediately and a long-term strategy? Answers by Charlotte Halpern, a researcher at  Sciences Po’s Centre for European Studies and Comparative Politics, who has been working on these issues for years.  Transcription Additional Resources European project CIVITAS SUMP-PLUS website Building Governance Capacity To Achieve Sustainable Urban Mobility Transitions, a Policy Brief by Charlotte Halpern, Dan Broghan, Anna Emilie Wehrle)Enabling Governance to Support Sustainable Mobility Planning, a presentation by Charlotte Halpern  Recorded on 17th March 2023 Conversations with Sergei GURIEV is a podcast by Sciences Po.
