"Putting Pedestrians First"

Toronto, Canada
October 1 – 4, 2007

The City of Toronto and Green Communities Canada were proud to co‑host the 8th annual Walk21 conference, Walk21 Toronto 2007. The conference was a great success, from many scheduled events and workshops to an international spirit and exchange of ideas. Thanks to all of our participants, organizers, volunteers, sponsors, and supporters!

Presentation papers from the conference's breakout sessions are available on the international Walk21 website. Please visit www.walk21.com and keep up to date with other Walk21 activities, including the International Charter for Walking and the 2008 Walk21 conference in Barcelona.

400 delegates from 19 countries took part in Walk21 Toronto 2007, including leaders from government, academia, the private sector, non-profit, community, and advocacy groups. The conference slogan – Putting Pedestrians First – reflected our desire to make this a conference that would motivate people to build on examples of best practice from their home communities and around the globe, and turn plans into action.
