Traducción al español disponible para este evento. How can cities encourage more people to walk and cycle — and to do so in safety? In this mini-symposium, we highlight success stories from cities around the world, looking beyond the well-known models of Copenhagen and Amsterdam. The symposium will feature two sessions, Q&A, and breakout groups. **Session 1: What Research Tells Us** New research from UCLA, C40 Cities, and the Institute of Transportation and Development Policy demonstrates how scaling up ambitions for bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure can help achieve substantial climate change and health benefits at the global scale. **Session 2: Sharing City Experiences** This session brings together planners from several cities that exemplify successful planning for walking and cycling in different contexts. **Breakout Sessions** - The future of US Bikeway Design: Applying the new NACTO Urban Bikeway Design Guide - Planning for Active Travel in the Global South - Research Deep Dive https://ucla.zoom.us/meeting/register/6GIQIDpPT3aaGz6sCAWEMQ#/registration
