Integrated land use/transport models for carbon neutral strategies
International Symposium at Osaka University Nakamoshima Center, Japan
24 September 2024, 9:30 to 16:30
Motivation
While most sectors of the economy have massively reduced emissions, transport emissions have remained almost unchanged for 30 years. Integrated land use and transport models can be used to investigate the impact of measures in land use or transport planning before they are implemented. Due to the high urgency of reducing emissions in the transport sector, it is of great importance to analyse measures such as decarbonization of transport, transit-oriented development, intensive densification in urban development, 15-minute neighbourhoods and the like for their environmental and social effects.
Participation
Participation is free of charge, but limited to 25 participants to foster engaged discussions between presentations. Researchers interested in participating are encouraged to submit an abstract. Abstracts will be reviewed and evaluated in terms of fit for the symposium.
Call for presentations
We invite experts in the field integrated land use/transport modeling to submit abstracts to propose a presentation at the symposium. Preference is given to presentations that discuss new methodology to enhance the analysis of land use/transport interaction. Conceptional studies that have not been implemented are welcome as well.
Please submit an abstract in English of approximately 250 words using this submission page. The abstract should describe the problem that this research tries to solve, the methodology applied and (expected) results. Submissions are accepted until 17th of May, 2024. We expect to share the decision of the review with the authors by 7th of June, 2024.
Venue
The symposium will be held at the 8th Floor of Osaka University Nakamoshima Center in Japan. This state-of-the-art conference center provides a comfortable environment for vibrant discussions on current research issues.
Address: 4-3-53 Nakanoshima, Kita-ku, Osaka, 530-0005
