Velo-city 2020 Ljubljana Preliminary Programme is out!
We are thrilled to announce the launch of the preliminary programme for the Velo-city 2020 Ljubljana conference - the annual global cycling summit of the European Cyclists’ Federation (ECF)! Take a look at the programme now and join us between 2nd and 5th June 2020 in Ljubljana, Slovenia for a unique week of cycling discussions and knowledge exchange!
We have received a high number of excellent submissions that were tied together into a programme of more than 60 sessions of different formats. The main theme of the Velo-city 2020 Ljubljana conference Smart Cycling Inclusion, will hit the ground running at the opening plenary with the same title. It will then be explored and questioned from various angles throughout the week until the closing plenary that will try to offer some answers on how to achieve smart and inclusive cycling governance in the future.
To enhance our programme and stretch our legs a bit, we are preparing five different cycling Technical Visits. You will get a chance to discover your surroundings on a bike and learn about the steps that have already been made and some changes that are still in the making to transform Ljubljana into an inclusive, green and cycle-friendly city of the future. Participation in the Technical Visits is on a first come, first served basis, so make sure to register fast and reserve your spot!
More information about the content of the programme, specific sessions, speakers and side events will follow in the coming weeks, so stay tuned.
Registrations are now open and the Early Registration is closing on the 4th of March. Don't hesitate to take a look at the preliminary programme, block your dates and register to join your fellow cycling enthusiasts in June.
