UNSDG18-D: SUSTAINABLE MOBILITY – LIM

 

History and presentation of LIM – Ladies in Mobility

LIM – Ladies in Mobility is an initiative that started in 2012 by the IMEDD in Monaco and France whose goal is to empower the women to commit to sustainable mobility in smart cities: for work, for family concerns, for children… Of course, the LIM project is supported by the men too. 
In 2014, LIM participated in the Metha Europe Contest (Ecole des Mines) at Ever Monaco at the Grimaldi Forum and was selected among the finalists. Still in 2014, LIM  extended its action to Italy, the United Kingdom, Ireland and the U.S.A to follow the commitments of the cities regarding urban planning and sustainable mobility solutions.
In 2016, LIM was listed by the European Commission as a best practice for Smart Cities.
