Here's what active travel leaders are prioritising now 🌍 From road safety, physical well-being, to the liveability of cities, there are different topics that resonate strongly in different lines of work today. Listen to the panel conversation here: pathforwalkingcycling.com/path-symposi...

The 2nd half of PATH presenters spotlighted 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗶𝘁𝘆 + 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗶𝘁𝘆 🎨💛 From engaging the youth to champion #roadsafety, building bridges in underserved communities, to trishaw rides for people of all abilities, these presenters showed that a little imagination can work wonders for #activetravel. ✨

The first half of our symposium presenters highlighted the power of collaboration and data 🚲 🤝 Carly Gilbert-Patrick and Sofia Pires Bento show how collaboration drives active mobility, while 📊 Juliana DeCastro and Dana Yanocha stress data’s power with projects like Transporte Ativo & CyclingMax.

Our group of four panelists all represent various levels of leadership, but based on their stories, it's clear that active mobility can begin on any level as long as there is coordination among all stakeholders. The most important bit? Understanding 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙗𝙞𝙜 𝙬𝙝𝙮 to create a resilient foundation.

At the PATH Symposium, keynote speaker Laura Andrea Salazar Correa shared Colombia’s National Strategy for Active Mobility, which puts people at the center through a gender and differential approach that: ✅ 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗴𝗻𝗶𝘇𝗲𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 ✅ 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 in male-dominated transport jobs

📢 Let’s speak facts: Walking and cycling deliver on more SDGs than any other mode of transport. From reducing the environmental impact of cities to creating safer, healthier spaces for individuals, active travel can transform nations into more robust and resilient places. 🚶‍♀️🚴‍♂️

Urban transport stands in the way of reaching our climate goals—shifting to active travel can change that. Join PATH as we advocate for the prioritisation of walking and cycling. More than modes of transport, these movements can cut emissions by half by 2030 and create safer, healthier cities. 🌱

📘 We’ve built a blueprint for better active travel policies—so you don’t have to. Our new template brings together global best practices to support walking and cycling, outlining 5 key goals for bold, integrated policy.

🚫 𝗩𝗲𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗹𝗲-𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰 𝗿𝗼𝗮𝗱𝘀 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗽. Millions of people are put at risk simply by walking or cycling — and the numbers are not improving. Between 2010 and 2021, global pedestrian deaths rose by 3%, while cyclist deaths surged by 20%. 📉 #roadsafety

PATH's updated '𝗔𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗹 𝗣𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗰𝘆 𝗧𝗲𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲' is here to guide national governments in creating integrated plans for impactful walking and cycling strategies. 🏛️🌍💡 The most important step? Having a well-defined vision of success. Because if you can't imagine it, you can't create it. 🌱✨

This #WorldBicycleDay2025, PATH highlights the vital role of cycling in active mobility — especially for nations that need it most. 🚲🌍 We call on governments to unlock cycling’s full potential by developing strong strategies and policies that embed walking and cycling into urban planning.
