Wrapping up the #Urban7 Summit in Nancy 🇫🇷 with a clear message ahead of the #G7: cities and regions are not only delivering on global commitments - they are ready and able to help shape them.
The Nancy Declaration makes that case loud and clear, and @UNECE is there to support.

Today, on #WorldBicycleDay 🚴🌍, we are reminded that every journey on two wheels should be a safe one 🪖.
As we celebrate cycling and its benefits for health, environment, and mobility, I also call for stronger commitment to road safety for cyclists everywhere . Too many lives are still lost or changed forever on our roads. This must change.
Let’s build streets where cyclists are protected, respected, and safe.
