Abstract

In the conversation on eco-friendly practices, the role of cultural values, norms, and attitudes as to sustainable urban transportation remains crucial yet still understudied. A lot of work has been done to identify the facets of sustainable transportation, yet there exists a gap of how culture elements shape the adoption and effectiveness of eco-friendly practices (Brown & Wang, 2018). This exploratory comparative qualitative research in progress investigates the key indicators derived from cultural values, norms, and attitudes on the adoption and effectiveness of eco-friendly transportation practices in Germany (such as Freiburg) and Japan (such as Tokyo).
