Share the Road Cycling Coalition invites you to submit an abstract to present at our 13th Annual Ontario Bike Summit taking place on April 5 and 6, 2022 at the Courtyard Toronto Downtown and online.

The theme is Resilience Through Bicycle Friendly Communities (BFCs) and invites presentations that will highlight principles of resilience in decision-making, fostering community, overcoming/reframing challenges as opportunities, and adapting to circumstances. Speakers are invited to discuss resilience as it relates to planning for bicycle friendliness to foster social connections; coordinating programs and services to withstand change; or sharing work across stakeholders and departments to foster resilient communities by design.

OBS2022 will cover the 4Es: Engineering, Education, Encouragement, Evaluation and Planning, with the addition of a fifth E: Equity and Diversity. There will be two concurrent sessions for each of the Es held on Wednesday, April 6th. Visit https://pheedloop.com/obs22/site/agenda-at-a-glance/ for up to date information about the conference.

Presentations will be 15 minutes in length, including questions.
