Abstract: The aim of the COMOPOCOV project is to try to answer the following question: can the COVID-19 crisis be an accelerator of change in mobility behaviour conducive to the ecological transition? In this work, we wish to present the first line of research of the COMOPOCOV project, which consists of analysing and characterising the changes in behaviour adopted since the first confinement (compared with the pre-crisis period) in order to obtain different profiles of individuals according to their changes in travel behaviour. The aim is therefore to characterise these changes in behaviour and to examine their persistence. We hypothesise the existence of four main profiles of changes in mobility: (i) demobility, (ii) modal shift towards less polluting modes (active mobility), (iii) modal shift towards the private car and (iv) no change in behaviour. We will put the profiles derived from our modelling into perspective and consolidate/support them with elements from the qualitative interviews. Finally, we will cross-reference the profiles with the various incentives for behaviour change in order to identify the incentives to be promoted for sustainable results in terms of mobility.
