Every abstract will be reviewed three times by a panel of international experts appointed by the organisers.<\/p>

After the review, the Programme Team will build sessions on the topics around the conference theme and subthemes. Selected abstracts will be assigned to relevant sessions paying particular attention to geographical and gender balance. An International Programme Committee composed of selected experts advises the Programme Team along the process to ensure alignment with our sector\u2019s priorities.<\/p>

You will be notified by email whether your abstract is accepted or rejected in early June at the latest. If your abstract is accepted, you will be asked to confirm your interest in being part of the programme. Please note that the session format may be different from the preferred one. The title of selected abstracts may be updated by the hosts, in coordination with the selected speaker, to better fit the programme.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Kindly be advised that if your abstract is accepted, you can register for a reduced fee. We therefore recommend that you register after receiving your notification of your submission outcome (in June). Please note: Early-bird rates are available up to and including 24 June 2026.<\/p>

If you have any questions about the abstract submission process, please reach out to EuroVelo2026@congressbydesign.com<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Please be advised that the session format is a preference and not a guarantee.

Find the session formats below:<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
  1. Panel discussions<\/strong>

    Moderated debates with about 4 experts around a given topic. Initial short presentations of 5 minutes are given by each speaker at the beginning of the session to frame the debate. The moderated discussion with all speakers follows. The Q&A session with the audience will take place at the end of the debate.<\/p><\/li>

  2. Lectures<\/strong>

    Presentations from 4 to 5 experts around a given topic. The lectures start with an introduction of the subject by the moderator. Next, each speaker presents a case study in 15 minutes and after these presentations a Q&A session with the audience takes place.<\/p?<\/p><\/li>

  3. Fast Pedal Talks<\/strong>

    Every speaker presents 20 slides with mainly pictures or visuals for 20 seconds each (total of 6 minutes and 40 seconds). This format keeps presentations concise and fast-paced, allowing for a lot of new ideas to be presented in a short period of time. After the presentations, speakers are available for direct and targeted Q&A.<\/p><\/li>

  4. Workshops<\/strong>

    These are interactive sessions around a specific topic that allow to introduce ideas or problems and brainstorm them or find solutions with a collective, hands-on approach.<\/p><\/li><\/ol>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
