In the last section of our study we would like to propose some solutions, which can be implemented at Czech universities. Cooperation with NGOs can facilitate to students initiation. We identified huge potential within the mobility issue, where many different actions could be applied. Students can significantly reduce their ecological footprint by riding their bike on a way to university and around the entire town. Therefore, we should encourage them to do that by improving the conditions for this activity. Bike stands installed around the buildings, together with facilities for service would be very helpful.

In the last section of our study we would like to propose some solutions, which can be implemented at Czech universities. Cooperation with NGOs and municipality can facilitate the students’ initiation.  
We identified huge potential within the mobility issue, where many different actions could be applied. Students and staff members can significantly reduce their ecological footprint by riding their bike on a way to university and around the entire town. Therefore, we should encourage them to do that and also improve the conditions for such activity. 
We will start with different campaigns explaining positives of cycling, which we identify not just in environmental, but also health issues. Students riding their bike on a way to school will be awarded by T-shirts presenting our campaigns. In the near future, we are also planning to realize some competitions, e.g. in a total number of kilometres ridden by members of different faculties.
Conditions for cycling around Czech towns and cities are not very well developed. We are planning to establish cooperation with municipal government to improve this situation. Bike stands installed around the buildings of the university, together with facilities for service would be very helpful for cyclists. At some universities, where students have to travel between different faculties, bike rental system should be developed together with bicycle paths connecting faculties and libraries.
