Engagement Principles & Programs to Foster Inclusive Uptake

A clean transportation future hinges on inclusivity. Zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs) have the potential to offer significant benefits for public health and the environment. However, decision-makers and agencies must guide the transition to ZEVs with care and intention to avoid deepening existing disparities in mobility access and pollution exposure. Considerations and thoughtful planning around groups facing steeper challenges in accessing and adopting ZEVs is essential. 

With funding from Alberta Ecotrust, the Pembina Institute has been advancing focused work to understand barriers and solutions to ZEV adoption among diverse business owners in Edmonton. Our work also includes developing tailored resources for small fleets owners in Canada with funding from Natural Resources Canada’s Zero Emission Vehicle Awareness Initiative.

This webinar will feature presentations, followed by a discussion with experts who are advancing equitable and inclusive ZEV adoption. They will share insights into barriers faced by diverse groups and learnings from engagement and programs deployed to foster inclusive uptake.
