The Global Master Plan for Cycling

Velo Mondial

WEBLOG

The premier global network on Sustainable Urban Mobility

Velo Mondial has been promoting cycling as a positive mode of transport since the second Global Cycling Conference in Amsterdam in 2000. In various projects we have been active in bringing cycling at the position where it is now: one of strong and positive opportunities for a world looking for sustainability. We were successful in our ambition to make cycling glamorous.

Velo Mondial continues with contributing to the most relevant projects on sustainable mobility in order to protect cycling in a wider context and to create better cities. We prioritize our work with local governments and with knowledge oriented organizations in the field of sustainable mobility. We are mainly focusing on systematically gathering information on sustainable mobility and making it available in innovative ways.

The first result can be seen in CiViTAS MIMOSA, where we developed an innovative search button system that will be at the heart of our 9 portals program: Pas-Port to Mobility: Quick & Easy Search to Mobility Information



Velo Mondial presently works on:
  • CIVITAS PLUS MIMOSA: Making Innovation in Mobility and Sustainable Actions; in Gdansk, Talinn, Funchal, Bologna and Utrecht
  • Pas-Port to Mobility, focusing on systematically gathering information on sustainable urban mobility and making it available in innovative ways.
We will bring to these programs all our experiences that we gathered in:
  • NATCYP: the first European National Cycle Policy Benchmark Program 
  • Velo.Info: the database for cycling expertise 
  • LUTR/PLUME: the European land use and transport research project
  • UTBI: The Urban Transport Benchmark Initiative
  • Susta-Info: Global database of case studies and publications on sustainability
  • Spicycles: sustainable policies for cities on cycling
  • Amsterdam Cycling to Sustainability with a focus on knowledge and with ambitions to set up the Amsterdam International Academy for Sustainable Mobility
  • The Master Class Sustainable Urban Mobility in Amsterdam
  • The New Amsterdam Bike Slam in New York
  • Safer Brain: Promoting a safer position for vulnerable road users in Brazil and India with a number of international partners

In Velo Mondials Blog you will find actual information on projects, presentations, positions
