Colombia

Road-based Freight NAMA and Active Transport and Travel Demand Management – NAMA TAnDEM

Background

Colombia has been well-known for its experience in implementing sustainable transport policies and projects in former centuries. In more recent years, while the sustainable transport policies have consolidated, climate change policies and interest in the transport sector have emerged strongly as well based on projects such as CDM for mass transit systems. This gave way to the country’s NAMA portfolio and its explicit interest in cooperating with GIZ on its TRANSfer project, where it begun by developing a road-based freight NAMA under TRANSfer I, and complementing it with the creation of a non-motorized transport policy and NAMA under TRANSfer II since end of 2013.
