MOBI-TWIN

Twin Transition and changing patterns of spatial mobility: a regional approach

MOBI-TWIN project aims to comprehend the intricate patterns of mobility and leverage this knowledge to foster regional prosperity. MOBI-TWIN key areas of focus include analysing the factors that shape human mobility behaviour, considering the influence of Twin Transitions on regional attractiveness. The project also examines the evolving equilibrium among different forms of spatial mobility and its implications for EU regions. Through advanced modelling techniques, the project assesses the consequences of changing mobility patterns on demographics, society, welfare systems, and the labour market. Additionally, the project envisions tailored strategies that capitalise on positive outcomes, promoting sustainable development and maximising benefits for EU regions.

Fair and Inclusive Twin Transitions for a Stronger Social Europe

FITTER-EU is aimed at contributing to existing research on the origins, dynamics and determinants of inequalities and enable anticipatory governance to support a fair and inclusive twin transition in Europe. The project innovates through the formulation and development of an ecosystem that includes an interactive and gamified Digital Platform powered by an Intelligent Predictive Decision Support System. Through a Co-Creation methodology, the ecosystem aims to enable policymakers to better predict which social groups may be at risk of being adversely affected by the twin transition policies under different scenarios.

Just Transition to a Green and Digital Future for all

Policies driving green and digital transitions, the so-called twin transitions, are intended to level the field to achieve the European Growth Model and attain the EU Green Deal and the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. Indeed, generating zero negative effects on the climate can be efficiently achievable by twining green and digital transitions. However, these policies have had unintended effects such as creating new inequalities and aggravating existing inequality gaps. Social groups already at risk in the EU’s most vulnerable regions are primarily affected. Therefore, public authorities and policy-makers at local, national and European levels need an evidence-based understanding of these inequalities and concrete ways to prevent and mitigate them. The READJUST project strives to address the inequalities created or exacerbated by the twin transitions policies and it aims to suggest policy options for overcoming the potential trade-offs between efficiency and equality in twin transitions in the key sectors of mobility and agri-food.
