Dublin hosted this symposium as part of the CIVITAS Handshake project, which brings together 13 cities across Europe to learn from each other by sharing experience, expertise and best practice on all things cycling. For more information on the CIVITAS Handshake project, please see https://handshakecycling.eu/ 

As Dublin’s mentor in the project, Amsterdam brought a contingent of experts to the symposium to support Dublin on areas including infrastructure design, as well as working with the media, businesses and politicians on how we engage our communities in co-creating a cycling city. The symposium gave us an opportunity to learn from one of the world leaders about their transition to become a cycling city, and how they overcame many of the challenges and obstacles that we face in Dublin today. 

The symposium included open public sessions, as well as sessions specifically for City Councillors and internal DCC staff.
