The Walk21 conference series has been established with the vision:

"To support, encourage and inspire professionals to evolve the best policies and implement the best initiatives, which create and promote environments where people choose to walk as an indicator of liveable communities"

The Objectives of Walk21 are to respond to the growing demand for a partnership of the world’s policy makers, researchers, campaigners and practitioners to:

  • Confirm the importance of walking issues at political and policy levels
  • Provide an international platform for an inclusive discussion
  • Acknowledge the research, practice and promotion undertaken so far and to highlight best practice
  • Identify the need for future research and opportunities for funding future networking.

International delegates attending a Walk21 conference do so to have the opportunity to hear from leading professionals about programmes, policies and projects that really work and explore those themes in action through walking tours and visits arranged in the host city.
