The T-SUM team will host a workshop at UCL to discuss the role of private actors in cities across the world in transitioning to sustainable urban mobility pathways.

It will be followed by a panel of experts including:
* Ed Parsons, Geospatial Technologist, Google
* Dr Matteo Rizzo, senior Lecturer in Development Studies, SOAS
* David Bull, former head of transport and urban planning, Birmingham
The workshop will involve open discussions and working sessions with attendees, which include government officials from Sierra Leone and Mozambique. These include Freetown's Mayor, Mayor Aki-Sawyerr, Maputo's Metropolitan Agency Director, Professor Antonio Matos, Freetown's Director of Transport Infrastructure Ministry of Transport, Hindolo Shiaka, and World Bank representative Fatima Arroyo.
The event will be chaired by Professor Peter Jones, OBE, Professor of Transport and Sustainable Development, UCL.
