7th International CongressXVIII Iberian Congress Programme
7–8 October 2021
The programme will include presentations and communications based around the following themes:
THEME 1 – RESILIENT CITIES AND REGIONS
Urban environments are dynamic in nature, undergoing a continuous process of transformation and change. In the current context of the health and climate crisis, our cities and regions are faced with a large number of challenges that will test their resilience. On the other hand, this situation also offers a unique opportunity to promote a new model of mobility where the bicycle will play a leading role during the coming decades.
THEME 2 – PROMOTION OF KNOWLEDGE AND THE LOCAL ECONOMY
Online trends in consumption have left local trade and the urban distribution of goods at a critical point. In this context, the bicycle can become a tool for transformation that contributes to the recovery of the local economy and the reduction of the negative impact associated with last mile logistics. Furthermore, this commitment to the bicycle and its growing involvement in cities and regions can provide an opportunity for the emergence of new innovation initiatives.
THEME 3 – PROMOTION, MONITORING AND GOVERNANCE
Plans, strategies, roadmaps… all the policies aimed at promoting the use of the bicycle must include new models of governance open to active participation and cooperation between the public and private sectors, and possessing the ability to adapt flexibly and effectively to external conditions. Policies whose priority must be to encourage people to use the bicycle, making this experience safe, comfortable and highly motivating.
THEME 4 – CITIES AND REGIONS FOR THE PEOPLE
The predominant urban model of the last century focused on meeting the demands of private vehicles. The cities and regions of the 21st century must work to be more and more inclusive, putting people and their needs back at the centre of decision-making. Cycling cities and regions contribute significantly to this new conception of city and region.
THEME 5 – ECOLOGY, HEALTH AND SPORT
The current crisis is forcing us to rethink our lifestyle as a society. In addition, we have more and more data that reveals the impact on our health of our everyday habits and the environments in which we live. In this context, cities and regions have to meet the demands of these new, more active and healthy lifestyles by integrating natural spaces in urban and interurban areas.
THEME 6 – CYCLING COMMUNITIES AND PARTICIPATION
Organizations, associations and the community play a key role in the definition, implementation and consolidation of policies aimed at increasing the participation of the bicycle in different areas. Different systems of governance and participation must be set up to guarantee the representativeness of the various groups and to make this collaboration fair and effective.
