The MobiliseYourCity Partnership is a leading global Partnership for systemic and transformative urban mobility planning, facilitating investments and linking local action with the global sustainability agenda

The MobiliseYourCity Partnership is a leading global Partnership for systemic and transformative urban mobility planning, facilitating investments and linking local action with the global sustainability agenda (Sustainable Development Goals and the Paris Agreement). The Partnership is supported by the European Commission, the French Ministry for the Ecological Transition (MTE), the Agence Française de Développement (AFD), the French Facility for Global Environment (FFEM), and the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Construction and Nuclear Safety (BMUV), which are working in collaboration to enable positive global transformation.  

Since 2015 the Partnership has gathered a network of 82 member cities and 16 member countries, which are being supported by 10 implementing and knowledge partners led by AFD and GIZ. City and country partners are supported through two main planning and project preparation tools: National Urban Mobility Policies and/or Investment Programs (NUMP) and Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans (SUMP), which serve as the basis for the promotion of investments and development of attractive mobility services. The MobiliseYourCity Partnership also acts as a platform for financing by connecting international and bilateral technical & financial agencies with cities and countries across the world that have ambitious goals to decarbonise and improve their urban transport. The ambition of the Partnership is to work with 100 cities and 20 countries.   

Since February 2017, the MobiliseYourCity Secretariat, staffed by CODATU and GIZ, works in Brussels to coordinate the Partnership’s activities, including communication, monitoring and reporting, partnership management, fundraising and consolidating technical expertise.  

The advertised internship position will be part of the CODATU team within the MobiliseYourCity secretariat and funded by AFD. The comms intern will closely work with the Partnership and Outreach manager and with the Associate Communicate and Sustainable Mobility Expert.
