Global best practices in sustainable transport launched

A collection of global best practices in sustainable transport was launched on Wednesday at the United Nations headquarters in New York, highlighting success stories from across continents.

The Global Sustainable Transport Best Practices Compilation 2025 features 22 cases from 20 countries in Asia, Africa, Europe and the Americas. The event was co-hosted by China's Global Sustainable Transport Innovation and Knowledge Center and the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs.

Navid Hanif, UN DESA's assistant secretary-general for economic development, said sustainable transport is not an abstract idea, but a real path shaped by concrete innovations.
