Annual Summit of the International Transport Forum (ITF)
Transport et développement urbain
8-20 May 2022, Leipzig. Once again the UfM will participate in the Annual Summit of the International Transport Forum (ITF), which will take place from 18 to 20 May in Leipzig, Germany. The ITF Summit is the world’s largest gathering of transport ministers and the premier global transport policy event.
The 2022 edition will explore how innovative technologies and business models in transport can enable social inclusion while also promoting sustainable economic growth. The discussions will focus on current and emerging issues relevant to inclusive transport, including the physical and social dimensions of accessibility, new mobility, and promoting resilience and equity within the transport labour market.
The Summit programme will cover all modes of transport across diverse geographic levels highlighting the importance of inter-sectoral cooperation and multi-level governance. The context of the COVID-19 crisis and recovery measures will feature prominently in the discussions as we consider the disproportionate impact of transport and mobility-related disruptions on society’s most vulnerable groups and communities.
