The Paris resolutions have made it necessary to develop long-term political strategies for the decarbonisation of the transport sector. The project "T4<2° - The Global Foresight Project on Transforming Mobility by Mid-Century" saw itself as a direct initial impetus and impulse for the development of long-term strategies. Political strategies for the decarbonisation of transport were the central objectives of the project. The substantive-analytical starting point and strategic contextualisation lay in the concept of the global energy transition. The aim was to make the future of a global "transport transition" visible and comprehensible, to make its interactions and interdependencies with the energy transition transparent and at the same time to emphasise the role of German energy policy on a global scale. In the T4<2° project, transformation scenarios and narratives were formulated to serve programme development and action coordination at international level. The aim of the overall project was to develop a qualitative study that presents the key future developments in the global transport sector against the backdrop of decarbonisation and the energy transition and provides recommendations for action for relevant stakeholders in a global context. The main focus was on the integration of different perspectives from relevant stakeholders and on capturing different perspectives from the relevant mobility and transport environments as holistically as possible. The IZT supported this project in the form of methodological support and advice.
