Join us for a pioneering and collaborative workshop as we explore the next frontiers in cycling research, part of the International Cycling Safety Conference 2024.

What is the aim of the workshop? : The objective of this workshop is to gather a global community of researchers, practitioners, and policymakers to discuss and predict the future of cycling safety research. Our focus will be on identifying and addressing strategic issues that will shape cycling safety over the next two decades, including technological advancements, urban planning integration, evolving policy landscapes, and environmental sustainability.  
Who can participate?: We are calling upon an interdisciplinary mix of professionals, such as academic researchers, data scientists, transportation engineers, urban planners, public health experts, environmentalists, practitioners, and policymakers. Their diverse expertise will ensure a comprehensive exploration of cycling safety from multiple angles. The workshop will allow a maximum of 30 individuals.
What are the session methods?: Interactive methodologies, including scenario planning, expert panels, and collaborative brainstorming sessions, will be used to draw out the collective knowledge of the participants. This approach will enable the development of innovative solutions and robust research pathways focused on the future of cycling safety.
How can I participate?: Participants are required to prepare a free-format abstract of up to 500 words, presenting research ideas or critical reviews that focus on future developments in cycling safety research. These abstracts should specifically address the question “What research would you be doing in 20 years?” This futuristic perspective will form the basis for group discussions and aid in crafting a forward-looking research agenda and subsequent publication. Please submit your abstracts by Oct 10th, 2024.   
What are the expected outcomes?: This workshop aims to forge an international collaboration network and produce a strategic publication that will guide future research efforts on cycling safety globally. This foundational publication will provide direction for creating safer cycling environments and influencing policy development worldwide.
