Become a CIVITAS City
CIVITAS Cities make up a thriving community of over 380+ peers committed to smart and sustainable mobility. Membership is open to all who sign the CIVITAS City Declaration, are a part of a CIVINET or are involved in a CIVITAS project.
How to become a CIVITAS City
To become a member, cities should be committed to introducing an approach to urban mobility policy that aligns with the sustainable, inclusive and integrated ideals fostered by the CIVITAS Initiative.
This commitment is shown by having a local politician with executive power, such as Councillor or (Vice) Mayor, sign the CIVITAS City Declaration. Fill out the application form here.
Once the application form has been reviewed and approved, your city will receive further instructions to proceed with the digital signature of the Declaration and officially become a CIVITAS city.
It is completely free to join!
