From 1 to 7 September, 30 European students will embark on a train trip from Barcelona to Grenoble, combining hybrid learning and intercultural encounters. A manifesto on green mobility in Europe will be elaborated by the students during the journey to raise awareness of the matter in the European Union.

This unique Blended Intensive Program (BIP) merges hybrid learning with hands-on experience, aiming to deepen students' understanding of sustainable mobility and intercultural exchange. Coordinated by Grenoble INP-UGA and Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya-Barcelona Tech (UPC), the U!Train initiative highlights the importance of rail transport in the context of the European Green Deal and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The journey not only serves as an educational experience but also as a practical demonstration of the benefits and challenges of green mobility in Europe.
