In this article, we have chosen to focus on the transport sector. First, we will propose a review of collaborative mobility practices in developed countries, whether it is car-pooling or car-sharing. Then, we will identify the advantages of collaborative mobility for the Lebanese society. Finally, we will raise questions regarding the prospects for the development of car-pooling in Lebanon. Several hypotheses will be formulated and tested empirically.
