Description

Description The initiative aims to demonstrate the importance of cycling in achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with special attention to climate action. By showcasing the ambitions of cities to increase the modal share of cycling worldwide, the initiative aims to mobilize support from WCA and ECF members to enable local, national and international governments and institutions to scale up action on cycling.
Objectives Double list of cities and regions with concrete targets in the next years, and ultimately double cycling in Europe in 2020.
Activities Further to mobilizing and supporting scale-up action on cycling, ECF continues to organize its annual global summit on cycling – Velo-city – that in 2017 took place in Arnhem-Nijmegen, the Netherlands. The next Velo-city conference will be held in Brazil in 2018.

In addition, WCA is campaigning for the United Nations General Assembly to recognize and designate a 'World Bicycle Day' in an effort to push cycling higher on the agenda and promote it as an important means of transportation that delivers on the Sustainable Development Goals.
