SUMA works with Asian countries and cities to strengthen the
formulation and implementation of sustainable urban transportation
policies, specifically in (i) improving urban air quality by adopting
AQM planning in sustainable transport policies, (ii) improving road
safety by encouraging non-motorized transport, and (iii) reducing
transport's contribution to climate change by adopting a co-benefits
approach with urban air quality management.
