Back for its third year, the 2014 National Women's Bicycling Forum will bring together and mobilize diverse leaders to increase the number of women on bikes in the United States. See the detailed agenda at www.bikeleague.org/forum
Women account for only 6% of staff in the transport industry and half as many women cycle in the UK compared to men. WE Cycle is a working group that aims to promote gender equality in cycling by increasing the number of women riding bikes and making it a normal choice of transportation. The group connects, inspires, and informs women about opportunities in cycling careers and community projects across the UK in order to make cycling a safe and normal choice for all women.
This chapter discusses a program assessment of "¡Cámara! ahínosvemos" conducted by Dr. Cathryn L. Thorup for the International Youth Foundation. The program connects underserved youth in Mexico to their communities through photography. The document then lists events and programs hosted by the Voice of the Youth Network, an organization that empowers Filipino youth. It provides contact information for the network, including websites, social media pages, and address.
This document provides information about finding the right cycling club or team for a beginning racer. It discusses the benefits of being part of a team, such as camaraderie, training partners, and race support. It recommends focusing on teams that train and race together as an actual team, rather than just wearing the same jersey. The document also provides tips on how to locate clubs and teams through local bike shops or online searches.
The document contains various quotes about urban cycling and bicycles. It discusses bicycles as a means of transportation, their efficiency, and their positive impact on health and the environment. Several quotes praise bicycles as a simple, balanced form of transport and note their role in women's fashion and liberation.
Melissa Keroack details why stretching should be incorporated into your daily exercise routine. Stretching is not only beneficial for your body, but also for your mind.
The document discusses the concept of a minimum viable product (MVP) and the process of designing MVPs to learn about customer needs. It emphasizes that the goal of an MVP is to learn, not necessarily to ship a product, and that it is a process of experimentation and addressing key questions to understand problem-solution fit and product-market fit. The document provides several definitions and perspectives on MVPs from thought leaders and advocates designing MVPs that address customers' biggest problems and creating a unified field theory to provide vision and guide experimentation.
Securing links can be tough, and it's not about how creative or productive or smart we are, but how persuasive we are. Kirsty will walk you through how to get clients and managers to say yes to your best ideas, how to get interesting, affordable data, how to get experts to collaborate with you, and how to create outreach emails that compel people to cover your campaign.

The Papilio Group hosted a screening of the film "Girl Rising" about empowering girls' education worldwide, followed by a discussion led by executives from Intel and 10x10. Over forty female executives attended the theater-themed event to view the film and discuss how educating girls can impact the world. The Papilio Group aims to support women executives and further girls' education in technology and emerging markets. Attendees were encouraged to get involved by becoming Papilio members or supporting the Girl Rising movement.
The document discusses the organization Women Bike and its goal of getting more women riding bicycles. It aims to create opportunities for women of all backgrounds to participate as riders, advocates, and leaders in bicycling. Women Bike has compiled over 100 data points in its first report that identifies barriers and opportunities to increase women's bicycling. The report also debunks common myths about women and bicycling, such as that women are not interested in biking or that gender parity is not possible given the high percentage of women bikers in countries like the Netherlands.
The WTS Western NC attendees listened to our presentation on women and cycling, which led to a conversation about why many women choose not to bike for more of their trips. Women of Facebook, what keeps you from using your bike for day-to-day trips? Or, if you do, what got you started?
Rotarians and YALI: Building Partnerships With Young African LeadersRotary International
Launched by former U.S. President Barack Obama in 2010,
the Young African Leaders Initiative (YALI) invests in young
people poised to become the next lawmakers, entrepreneurs,
and community leaders in Africa. Learn about YALI’s
flagship program, the Mandela Washington Fellowship, and
see how your club can connect with the hundreds of fellows
studying in the United States and the greater YALI network
to partner on projects in Rotary’s areas of focus.
The Young Women's Movement provided opportunities for young women's voices to be heard through various initiatives over the past year. They launched the Status of Young Women in Scotland report, which included interviews with 61 young women about their experiences. They held events like Envisioning 2035 to discuss the report and imagine what 2035 will be like for today's young girls. The organization also increased outreach through roadshows, conferences, and growing social media presence to further elevate young women's voices and perspectives.
The document discusses the Copenhagen Cycle Chic (CCC) blog, which promotes cycling as a stylish and relaxed form of urban transportation. It analyzes how CCC presents an idealized vision of cycling culture in Copenhagen and has inspired similar blogs in other cities. However, the gender politics of CCC's imagery and its focus on Copenhagen's unique infrastructure limit its practical application as a model in most places. Nonetheless, CCC provides an imaginative vision that can mobilize potential cyclists and advocacy efforts.
Former Miss Universe Mpule Kwelagobe announced a new initiative called "In Women's Hands: Empowering the Next Generation of African Female Leaders" to mobilize and empower the next generation of African women leaders aged 35 and under. As part of this initiative, Kwelagobe will launch the Network of Women Investing in Africa Leadership Program to engage female change agents in addressing development challenges in Africa. The program aims to promote gender equality and women's empowerment, which research shows leads to higher investment in communities and is key to achieving sustainable development goals in Africa.
This webinar looked at how imagery shapes and reinforces negative attitudes to ageing, and explored current efforts to depict older age in a more positive and realistic light.

This document summarizes cycling advocacy efforts in Scotland led by Women's Cycle Forum Scotland. It discusses several programs aimed at getting more people cycling, especially women and families, through community workshops, advocacy events, and campaigning. These include establishing women's cycling groups across Scotland, learn to ride programs, family bike workshops, an all-ability cycling center, and efforts to promote cycling to preschool children. It also mentions annual advocacy rides and working with local authorities on initiatives like school streets to promote cycling. The overall goal is a more diverse and inclusive cycling community that benefits all potential cyclists.
The document summarizes Unilever's "Campaign for Real Beauty" launched by Dove in 2004. The campaign aimed to broaden society's definition of beauty by featuring women of diverse body types and ages in their advertising. It was inspired by research finding most women dissatisfied with beauty standards. The campaign expanded globally and included educational programs, exhibitions, and further studies on women's self-esteem and relationships with their bodies and society's beauty ideals. While some criticized using non-models, the campaign sought to celebrate diverse beauty and boost women's confidence.

Surgeon General's Call to Action to Promote Walking & Walkable Communitiescarolynbike
This document is the Surgeon General's Call to Action to Promote Walking and Walkable Communities. It outlines the health benefits of physical activity, such as walking, and notes that too few Americans meet physical activity guidelines. It encourages designing communities that make walking safe and easy through improvements like sidewalks and parks. It calls on multiple sectors of society to support policies and programs that increase opportunities for walking to improve public health.
On June 22, the U.S. Conference of Mayors passed a resolution in support of Vision Zero, declaring that “no one should die or be seriously injured while traveling on our cities’ streets.”
League of American Bicyclists: Seeing & Believingcarolynbike
Bike equity means believing the stories people have to share about what it's like for them to be in the street. There's more to safety than being seen, and we need to believe when people tell us about insecurity beyond traffic violence.
Can we build common cause for safe streets that includes the fears of racial discrimination keeping so many people in their cars? What do enforcement-based approaches to traffic safety look like when they respect and address the realities of police mistrust? With insights gathered from bike/ped advocates this fall, we worked with Dr. Echo Rivera to craft images that shed light on why race matters in active transportation.
As a national organization, the League of American Bicyclists has a role to play in convening tough conversations. We're going to keep this Seeing & Believing project going as we shed light on complex barriers to active transportation.
