The Decarbonising Transport in Emerging Economies (DTEE) project aims to help national governments and other stakeholders to identify transport measures and establish pathways to reduce transport CO2 emissions and meet their climate goals and NDCs.
The project will be focused on four ITF member countries: Argentina, Azerbaijan, India and Morocco. ITF will support their carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions reduction ambitions by designing a common assessment framework for transport emissions. The framework will cover several transport sectors and modes and will be tailored to each case. This includes the development of modelling tools, policy scenarios and catalogues of effective measures in close co-ordination with each of the countries' national government agencies, other local decision makers, academia, experts and civil society organisations.
Capacity building will be fostered through activities including stakeholder workshops, training, policy briefs and mitigation action plans to help improve future transport research and policy development beyond the project duration.
The project is funded by the International Climate Initiative (IKI) of the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety (BMU). It will be implemented in collaboration with The Wuppertal Institute (WI).
