Their story started in Helsinki, Finland, in 2006 where a visionary group from the UITP, decided to bring a fresh perspective to the world of T... ransport, by involving young people and listening to their perspective and experiences on Public Transport. After the success of Helsinki, the process was replicated in other countries, where more and more young people were getting involved in finding solutions for current social challenges, and to promote better transportation systems that provide a positive mobility experience and accessibility to all citizens. They are Young Ambassadors spread all over the world, working together because they believe boundaries and limitations should not exist in promoting sustainable development to communities worldwide.More
