2 Content 1.Agenda setting for research and advocacy 2.New terms and paradigms: focal points for research 3.Cycling is a Global Issue 4.Perspectives for further research 5.Conclusions Cycling is a Global Issue – Increasing demands for cycling related research and the current status of the S4C agenda setting Manfred Neun – Scientists for Cycling Colloquium, Adelaide 2014

3 Agenda setting for research + advocacy How to start and run the S-4-C network: 1.What are the key-issues for cycling related research? 2.Which sciences, which disciplines are invited to meet/ to participate? 3.How can we use the agenda to bridge from science / academia to cycling advocacy (and/or to politics plus experts)?

12 Agenda setting for research + advocacy 1.vvv 2.Start of 3.Current status with 8 key-issues 4.Xxx 5.Agenda + key-issues: focal points for research? Cycling is a Global Issue – Increasing demands for cycling related research and the current status of the S4C agenda setting Manfred Neun – Scientists for Cycling Colloquium, Adelaide 2014 1 1

13 The role of new terms and paradigms 1.Besides the agenda: Are there other focal points for research? 2.We have identified these basic criteria, terms and paradigms: Active Mobility Human Rights, Global Justice … Sustainability New terms about cycling Cycling is a Global Issue – Increasing demands for cycling related research and the current status of the S4C agenda setting Manfred Neun – Scientists for Cycling Colloquium, Adelaide 2014 2 2

14 The role of new terms and paradigms: Active Mobility Active – what? Better known: active travel, active transportation Well established: NMT - …? ‘Rest of transportation’? Active and Passive Mobility – a complementary system for integrated transport Cycling is a Global Issue – Increasing demands for cycling related research and the current status of the S4C agenda setting Manfred Neun – Scientists for Cycling Colloquium, Adelaide 2014 2.1

15 The role of new terms and paradigms: Active Mobility Active and Passive Mobility – a complementary system for integrated transport All modes of transport are needed for integrated transport Accessibility to public space Equality: no two-class policy, no two class society Cycling is a Global Issue – Increasing demands for cycling related research and the current status of the S4C agenda setting Manfred Neun – Scientists for Cycling Colloquium, Adelaide 2014 2.1

16 The role of new terms and paradigms: Active Mobility Active and Passive Mobility – even in a complementary system: Are they of equal value? Is there a basic right / liberty for AM and/or PM? Can there be a Human Right for AM and/or PM? For what are public authorities responsible for? Cycling is a Global Issue – Increasing demands for cycling related research and the current status of the S4C agenda setting Manfred Neun – Scientists for Cycling Colloquium, Adelaide 2014 2.1

17 The Human Rights approach The Human Rights approach was developed in several steps: Vancouver June 2012 – Charter Tranter, Paul [2012]: Creating cycle friendly cities? – It’s child’s play. Plenary speech; Velo-city Global 2012, Vancouver, BC. Nantes May 2013 Neun, Manfred [2013]: Public Space and the Human Right on Active Mobility: How to use the impact of cycling for sustainability and Human Rights’ consideration. Presentation at the 5th World Forum on Human Rights on May 25th, 2013, Nantes. Vienna June 2013 The Cycling Economy Grid – The Cycling Economy 2.0 by Human Rights Suwon September 2013 Tutzing November 2013 Cycling is a Global Issue – Increasing demands for cycling related research and the current status of the S4C agenda setting Manfred Neun – Scientists for Cycling Colloquium, Adelaide 2014 2.2

18 Sustainability Is there a global need? Non-sustainability is growing. “Sustainability” is a fragile term; and: reducing non-sustainable behavior not automatically creates sustainable results. We are targeting the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals – SDGs. Target: cycling + Active Mobility must be in. Cycling is a Global Issue – Increasing demands for cycling related research and the current status of the S4C agenda setting Manfred Neun – Scientists for Cycling Colloquium, Adelaide 2014 2.3

19 Sustainability Great impulses from: UN SETTLEMENT REPORT 2014 Sustainability and Human Rights – as a couple Cycling is all in one “The Price of Inequality” Cycling is a Global Issue – Increasing demands for cycling related research and the current status of the S4C agenda setting Manfred Neun – Scientists for Cycling Colloquium, Adelaide 2014 2.3 The Basic Factors Economic - Social - Environmental The Balancing Factors The Bosting Factors “The Sustainability Cube” M. Neun at the 5th World forum on Human Rights, Nantes 2013

23 Perspectives for further research As outlined, cycling is a global issue, and we are facing an increasing demand for further research: 1.In general, as cycling is part of the solution for all or global problems 2.The demand of decision makers in governments + administrations for efficiency based data 3.Researchers themselves > growing “market” Cycling is a Global Issue – Increasing demands for cycling related research and the current status of the S4C agenda setting Manfred Neun – Scientists for Cycling Colloquium, Adelaide 2014 4 4
