Green Deal Shared Mobility
Inspired by the Dutch Green Deal on car-sharing, Autodelen.net, The Shift, The New Drive and Mpact took the initiative to launch a Green Deal Shared Mobility with the Flemish Government.
The aim of the Green Deal is to accelerate the growth of shared mobility (car-sharing, carpooling and bike-sharing) in Flanders. The Green Deal is a partnership of many different organisations who are willing to undertake actions and to remove barriers to provide alternatives to car ownership.
The Green Deal, launched the 27th of March 2017, is an engagement between several parties and the Flemish government. At the moment of the kick-off, 80 organisations has signed the deal with three Flemish Ministers: Bart Tommelein (Energy), Ben Weyts (Transport and public works) and Joke Schauvliege (Environment). The signing organisations have chosen their own actions to contribute to the 4 objectives of the green deal, with 2020 as horizon.
Flanders in 2020
the number of car-sharers has increased to 80.000
