Velo-city Dublin 2019 calls for conference submissions

Velo-city 2019’s conference organisers — European Cyclists’ Federation and Dublin City Council — have made a call for submissions by October 22, 2018.

The European Cyclists’ Federation’s annual conference is the world’s largest conference in the area of cycling for transport. It is planned to take place at the Convention Centre Dublin on June 25-28, 2019.

...I'm sorry to disrupt you while you're reading this article, but without messages like this, IrishCycle.com's reader-funded journalism won't survive. With nearly 1/2 million views and 300k readers so-far this year, it's not just people who are dedicated to cycling that this website reaches. However, the number of subscribers is around 0.6% of readers. While having a large gap between readers/subscribers is standard for non-paywall reader-supported journalism, IrishCycle's journalism needs more support. Don't delay, support monthly or yearly today. Now, back to the article...

The sub-title of the conference is ‘Cycling for the Ages’, its vision is “the cycling city of 2030”, and the three conference themes are: (1) technology, intelligent transport systems and data analytics; (2) health and social; and (3) environment and infrastructure.

The conference organisers said: “Following Velo-city’s proud tradition of interactive and engaging presentations, we invite you to share with us a proposal for a presentation which will inspire attendees, enrich the conference programme and help us to reflect the breadth of cycling experience globally.”

They added: “People who cycle are central to the Velo-city conference and ideally your presentation will engage with the human side of cycling, taking into consideration age and gender and the role of the bicycle as a tool to help us live our lives, no matter what our age.”

...That's the end of the article. Keep scrolling if you want to the comments, but IrishCycle.com *NEEDS* readers like you to keep it that way. It only requires a small percentage of readers to give a bit each month or every year to keep IrishCycle.com's journalism open to all. Thank you.
