This policy brief outlines the main policy interventions that can contribute to realizing low-emission transport systems in a timely, feasible and inclusive manner to address climate change challenges. It condenses empirical findings and key policy recommendations for the land, aviation and maritime transportation sectors. It concludes with a discussion on the need to ensure a just transition to a low-emission transport future.
