The Interreg Europe programme recognised the "astyMOVE" initiative as a good practice and published its overview in October 2024. This initiative addresses the challenge of sustainable transportation on Astypalea, a Greek island struggling with traffic congestion and the environmental impact of traditional vehicles. It achieves its objectives by implementing a smart mobility app that provides users with access to electric vehicles, bike rentals, and public transport options. To explore the full overview of this good practice, including the resources needed for implementation, evidence of success, and potential for learning or transfer, follow the attached link.
