Coruche organises activities during EUROPEANMOBILITYWEEK 2023, taking into account the annual theme.

All week
Realização de atividades nas escolas sob o lema "Combina e move-te!"
Descrição da atividade:
Queremos uma cidade com mais eficiência energética que combine com movimento, e para isso, temos que mudar os nossos comportamentos.
Andar e caminhar só traz benefícios!!! Ficamos mais saudáveis, geramos menos poluição, promovemos o comércio local e ainda a vida em sociedade.
Nesta animação o objetivo é criar percursos para peões e bicicletas seguros de forma a retirar o maior número de carros da nossa cidade, as pessoas se movam
mais e haja eficiência energética.
A atividade será realizada em todas as ECO ESCOLAS.
