Biography

Zoe Long is a PhD student with Sustainable Transportation Action Research Team (START), with over 5 years of experience leading applied research in low-carbon transport solutions. She is interested in understanding how public policy can shape a future transportation system that is low-carbon, affordable, and is accessible for all travelers. Her research aims to understand how consumers might use new transport technologies (such as electric and self-driving vehicles) and how policy can ensure that these technologies are compatible with climate change goals – with the goal of producing evidence-based policy recommendations for decision makers. Her studies have been used by the government of BC, Metro Vancouver, and TransLink to inform their climate mitigation efforts.
