Transitioning to sustainable urban mobility is imperative to decarbonize transport, meet the sustainable development goals and build urban transport systems that are economically sound,. Since being launched in december 2015 at cop21, the mobiliseyourcity partnership has become the leading global partnership for sustainable urban mobility planning, policy development, and increasing investment for sustainable transport in developing and emerging economies. Current literature presents several strategies for cities to address this urban transport financing gap, but individual strategies only partially address its complex causes. Since its inception after cop 2015 in paris, the mobiliseyourcity partnership has become a leader in sustainable urban mobility planning, policy development, and increasing investment for sustainable transport in developing and emerging economies. For example, urban transport projects (detailed in table 2) only made up 5–8 % of the transport portfolio of the world bank between 1995 and 2006, although transport as a whole received nearly one fth of the bank’s commit ments (world bank, 2007).
