Y4PT Healthy Mobility Campaign 2014 in Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia, Southeast Asia) endorsed by RapidKL (local PT operator)

Move around your city by using public transport, cycling and/or walking for one month and share your experience with us by filling up our online survey.

Your voice will be heard at the 4th Y4PT World Youth Meeting (Y4PT Dubai 2014) and it will also influence the public transport decision-making process worldwide; in fact, we will present the results of the Survey, at difference international Conferences and Congresses!

WHO CAN PARTICIPATE?

Everyone interested in promoting public transport, biking and walking as sustainable alternatives to cars and other private transport modes.

WHEN?

From the 3rd to the 23th of March.

WHY?

Join the cause of environmental sustainability by contributing to the reduction of CO2 emissions and enjoy the health benefits generated from the employment of “rather than by car” alternatives.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE: GET INVOLVED!!!

– Send us your e-mail address in order to receive the Y4PT printable logo (you can also get it from here!), which you will be wearing during the Healthy Mobility month ( you can stick it on your bike, bags, books, smart phone, computer…)

– Think of a “rather than by car” transport mode (public transport, biking, walking, etc…) which you will be using during the scheduled month in order to move around your city.

– Follow us on Facebook and Twitter and share your photos, videos and personal experiences.

– At the end of the Healthy Mobility month, fill up the online survey and provide us with detailed and contextual information about your experience. Your voice will be heard at the 4th Y4PT World Youth Meeting (Y4PT Dubai 2014) and everywhere in the world!

Your experience will influence the worldwide transport decision-making process and will also raise awareness about the need of using public transport and biking in the Middle East and North Africa region, where such transport modes are not as popular as they are in other parts of the world.

WE LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING YOUR STORIES AND WE ENCOURAGE YOU TO SHARE YOUR MOBILITY PROPOSALS FOR THE UPCOMING EVENT!!

Once again Y4PT is giving you the opportunity to raise your voice and advocate sustainable mobility. Once again we urge everyone to take a step and stand out of the crowd!!
