His presentation, <em>&#8220;Public Acceptability and the Politics of Healthier Urban Mobility. How to Make Impact: From Science to Practice&#8221;<\/em>, explored public support, opposition, and backlash surrounding urban mobility policies, highlighting how perceived resistance can sometimes discourage policy action despite substantial underlying public support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"579\" src=\"https:\/\/webs.uab.cat\/atrapa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/544\/2026\/08\/10_UBPPolicy-Workshop-Oriol--1024x579.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-277\" srcset=\"https:\/\/webs.uab.cat\/atrapa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/544\/2026\/08\/10_UBPPolicy-Workshop-Oriol--1024x579.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/webs.uab.cat\/atrapa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/544\/2026\/08\/10_UBPPolicy-Workshop-Oriol--300x170.jpg 300w, https:\/\/webs.uab.cat\/atrapa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/544\/2026\/08\/10_UBPPolicy-Workshop-Oriol--768x434.jpg 768w, https:\/\/webs.uab.cat\/atrapa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/544\/2026\/08\/10_UBPPolicy-Workshop-Oriol-.jpg 1097w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The discussions aligned closely with ATRAPA&#8217;s interest in understanding the social and political dynamics shaping active mobility policies and their implementation. <br>The workshop provided a very interesting opportunity to disseminate ATRAPA research beyond academia, engage with policymakers and practitioners, and exchange perspectives on how evidence can better inform urban mobility and public health decision-making.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-post-date\"><time datetime=\"2026-06-19T13:55:15\">19 de June de 2026<\/time><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On 10-11 June 2026, ATRAPA and GEMOTT researchers participated in the two-day UBDPolicy Workshop, &#8220;How to Make Impact: From Science to Practice \u2013 Bridging the Gap Between Research and Real-World Action to Create Healthier, More Sustainable Cities,&#8221; held in Barcelona.
