Dutch Cycling Embassy Brazil June 2013
The Dutch Cycling Embassy brings a team of experts from the Dutch public and private sector to Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro for an exchange on cycling policies in relation to urban planning and mobility. We like to share the Dutch experience and expertise on cycling inclusive planning and to contribute to policy developments abroad for safe inclusive mobility and vibrant cities. And we are happy that we can link the workshops with the experts and decision makers in Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, with the mission by the city of Amsterdam to strengthen relations with both cities. In this exchange Amsterdam wants to explore how it’s prime world position on cycling can become part of city bonds. The workshop in Sao Paulo has been prepared with the Netherlands consulate general and the city of Amsterdam. The workshop in Rio de Janeiro has been prepared with the Netherlands consulate general in Rio and is a follow up of the cooperation between the city and the Dutch Cycling Embassy as a contribution to the Dutch Rio+20 agenda in 2012. In that cooperation, a study has been done to calculate the impact on CO2 emission reduction in the city, by cycling and interventions to promote it further. In 2013 the Dutch Cycling Embassy will become the coordinator of a Partners in Business program, to establish cultural and economic relations with Brasil through cycling. In a Partners in Business program, private companies cooperate with the Dutch government, the Netherlands Embassy and consulates and Dutch local governments for export promotion. The focus in this program will be on Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro and the workshops are a good opportunity for a kick-off of a structural exchange and cooperation. We are proud to introduce you to the organisations that contribute with us to the workshops: the city of Amsterdam, the university of Twente, MLAplus and Berenschot International. We are looking much forward to the exchange with the Prefetuira’s in Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro Roelof Wittink, Director Dutch Cycling Embassy
