15:30 – 16:30 BST, 10 September 2026 ‐ 1 hour

Room: Island 1, Crown Plaza Hotel, Mezzanine

Session

How do exchange students decide how to travel to their mobility destination, and how can institutions support greener choices? In this interactive session, you will step into a student's shoes and follow a typical mobility journey. Drawing on insights from the Sustainable Erasmus+ Travel project and different concepts from psychology, we will identify key decision points and develop practical measures to promote sustainable travel behaviour.
