It is organised by the International Road Federation (IRF)\, the Union for the Mediterranean (UfM) and the International Federation of Consulting Engineers (FIDIC). \nTransport infrastructure in many low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) and emerging economies is still under development\, making the decisions taken this decade especially critical. Each year\, natural hazards cause an estimated USD 15 billion in direct damage to transport systems\, with LMICs absorbing more than half of this loss. Despite receiving approximately 29% of climate finance\, the transport sector still faces the largest investment gap. \nIn this context\, effective procurement becomes essential—not only to maximise the impact of limited resources but also to ensure that transport infrastructure is resilient\, inclusive and future-proof. The session will explore how procurement strategies such as Qualifications-Based Selection (QBS) can enhance outcomes by prioritising expertise\, innovation\, and quality over cost alone. QBS is particularly relevant in contexts where roads must withstand extreme conditions and rapid urbanisation\, allowing for the integration of advanced engineering techniques and sustainable materials from the outset. \nThe session will also address the increasing integration of social responsibility into procurement frameworks. Drawing on the World Bank’s precedent of disqualifying contractors over non-compliance with Gender-Based Violence (GBV)-related obligations\, the discussion will consider how procurement can promote not only technical excellence\, but also equity\, accountability and social resilience in infrastructure delivery. \nBy bringing together expertise from across regions and sectors\, this session aims to demonstrate how smart\, ethical procurement practices can deliver transport systems that are not only fit for purpose\, but built to last. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_button button_color=”color-114213″ border_width=”0″ link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fsummit.itf-oecd.org%2F2025%2F|target:_blank” button_color_type=”uncode-palette” uncode_shortcode_id=”137694″]Event page[/vc_button][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_custom_heading uncode_shortcode_id=”199335″]Meet the speakers:[/vc_custom_heading][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_gallery el_id=”gallery-318462″ medias=”45175\,45170\,45171\,45176\,45172\,45173\,45174″ gutter_size=”3″ media_items=”media|nolink|original\,icon\,title\,caption\,description\,team-social” screen_lg=”1000″ screen_md=”600″ screen_sm=”480″ single_text=”under” single_width=”3″ images_size=”one-one” single_shape=”circle” single_overlay_opacity=”50″ single_overlay_anim=”no” single_text_anim=”no” single_image_anim=”no” single_h_align=”center” single_v_position=”top” single_padding=”1″ single_title_dimension=”h5″ single_icon=”fa fa-plus2″ single_border=”yes” single_css_animation=”alpha-anim” lbox_title=”yes” lbox_caption=”yes” carousel_rtl=”” single_half_padding=”yes” single_title_uppercase=”” single_title_serif=”” single_no_background=”yes” items=”eyIxMzc2M19pIjp7InNpbmdsZV9saW5rIjoidXJsOmh0dHAlM0ElMkYlMkZ3d3cudW5kc2duLmNvbXx8dGFyZ2V0OiUyMF9ibGFuayJ9LCIxMzc2OV9pIjp7InNpbmdsZV9saW5rIjoidXJsOmh0dHAlM0ElMkYlMkZ3d3cudW5kc2duLmNvbXx8dGFyZ2V0OiUyMF9ibGFuayJ9LCIxMzc3MF9pIjp7InNpbmdsZV9saW5rIjoidXJsOmh0dHAlM0ElMkYlMkZ3d3cudW5kc2duLmNvbXx8dGFyZ2V0OiUyMF9ibGFuayJ9LCIxMzc2Nl9pIjp7InNpbmdsZV9saW5rIjoidXJsOmh0dHAlM0ElMkYlMkZ3d3cudW5kc2duLmNvbXx8dGFyZ2V0OiUyMF9ibGFuayJ9fQ==” uncode_shortcode_id=”175079″ el_class=”irf-execs”][/vc_column][/vc_row] URL:https://irfofficial.org/event/effective-qualifications-based-gender-responsive-procurement/ LOCATION:Congress Center Leipzig\, Seehausener Alle 1\, Leipzig\, Germany CATEGORIES:Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://irfofficial.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Effective-Qualifications-based-Gender-Responsive-Procurement-as-a-Tool-to-Enhance-the-Resilience-of-Transport-Systems-1-1-scaled.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20250521T110000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20250521T123000 DTSTAMP:20251101T093749 CREATED:20250423T153123Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250505T081305Z UID:44956-1747825200-1747830600@irfofficial.org SUMMARY:Transport System Resilience\, Connectivity & Diversification in the Face of Climate Change & Other Global Shocks - ITF Summit 2025 DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_single_image media=”44960″ media_width_percent=”70″ alignment=”center” uncode_shortcode_id=”160533″ media_link=”url:%20https%3A%2F%2Firfofficial.org%2Fevent%2Fitf-summit-2025%2F”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_custom_heading uncode_shortcode_id=”186351″]About the event[/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”973454″] \nIn the context of the ITF 2025 Summit on “Transport Resilience to Global Shocks”\, taking place from 21 to 23 May in Leipzig\, Germany\, under the ITF Presidency of Chile\, this side event will bring together key actors to examine how we can strengthen and diversify global transport networks in the face of increasingly complex disruptions. \nThe session will take place on 21 May 2025 from 11:00 to 12:30\, and is organised by the Ministry of Land\, Infrastructure\, Transport and Tourism of Japan\, Life-Links\, Kuehne Climate Center\, the International Road Federation (IRF)\, Oris Materials Intelligence\, and the Asian Transport Observatory. \nFrom pandemics and conflicts to cyberattacks\, natural disasters and climate change\, global shocks continue to disrupt international logistics. Strengthening the resilience and connectivity of transport systems calls not only for more robust infrastructure\, but also for smarter operations\, alternative routes\, inclusive planning\, and integrated climate action. \nThe session will open with a panel on diversifying freight transport corridors between Europe and Northeast Asia\, through Central and Southeast Asia. Speakers will examine concrete challenges – including high costs\, extended lead times\, and procedural inefficiencies – and explore actionable solutions. \nThe second part of the session will feature the launch of Logistics in a 2 Degrees World\, followed by a panel focusing on building resilience in existing supply chains and transport corridors. Discussions will explore how key performance indicators can guide investments and policy\, while supporting the role of local communities and informal transport providers. Examples will highlight land-based networks\, with particular attention to Africa\, Asia and Latin America. \nThis side event builds on the momentum of the Transport i-Lab at COP29\, and discussions held at IMO and the World Economic Forum in Davos. Its outcomes will feed into the global conversation on sustainable and resilient mobility at COP30 in Brazil. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_button button_color=”color-114213″ border_width=”0″ link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fsummit.itf-oecd.org%2F2025%2F|target:_blank” button_color_type=”uncode-palette” uncode_shortcode_id=”137694″]Event page[/vc_button][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_custom_heading uncode_shortcode_id=”154115″]Meet the distinguished speakers[/vc_custom_heading][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row unlock_row=”” row_height_percent=”0″ overlay_alpha=”50″ gutter_size=”5″ column_width_percent=”100″ shift_y=”0″ z_index=”0″ content_parallax=”0″ uncode_shortcode_id=”166082″ shape_dividers=””][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_custom_heading text_color=”accent” text_size=”h3″ uncode_shortcode_id=”102800″ text_color_type=”uncode-palette”]Panel 1[/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”162743″]Moderator \n\nEmiko Araki\, Director\, International Cooperation Office\, International Policy Division\, Ministry of Land\, Infrastructure\, Transport and Tourism\n\nPanellists \n\nSakiko Hirokane\, Director for International Logistics Negotiations\, International Logistics Office\, Logistics and Road Transportation\nMiyoung Kim\, General Manager\, Global Parts Business Strategy Department\, Toyota Tsusho Corporation\nMakoto Ozeki\, Assistant General Manager\, Global Business Department\, Nissin Corporation\nAleksandra Suladze\, Deputy Head of Transport and Logistics Development Policy Department\, Ministry of Economy and Sustainable Development of Georgia\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_custom_heading text_color=”accent” text_size=”h3″ uncode_shortcode_id=”312632″ text_color_type=”uncode-palette”]Panel 2[/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”208239″]Moderator \n\nSophie Punte\, CEO\, Life-Links\n\nSpeakers \n\nGonzalo Alcaraz\, Acting Director General\, International Road Federation\nMark Major\, Advisor Climate\, Kuehne Climate Center\n\nPanellists \n\nJamie Leather\, Director Transport Sector Group\, Asian Development Bank\nNicolas Miravalls\, CEO\, Oris Materials Intelligence\nSusanna Zammataro\, CEO\, International Federation of Consulting Engineers (FIDIC)\nAndrea San Gil Léon\, Executive Director\, Global Network for Popular Transport\nWarwick Townsend\, Sustainability & CSR Manager\, Alstom\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row] URL:https://irfofficial.org/event/transport-system-resilience-connectivity-diversification/ LOCATION:Congress Center Leipzig\, Seehausener Alle 1\, Leipzig\, Germany CATEGORIES:Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://irfofficial.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Transport-System-Resilience-Connectivity-Diversification-in-the-Face-of-Climate-Change-Other-Global-Shocks-scaled.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20250521 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20250524 DTSTAMP:20251101T093749 CREATED:20250423T173012Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250505T080826Z UID:40569-1747785600-1748044799@irfofficial.org SUMMARY:ITF Summit 2025 DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_single_image media=”44947″ media_width_percent=”70″ alignment=”center” uncode_shortcode_id=”119864″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_custom_heading uncode_shortcode_id=”186351″]About the event[/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”193549″]The ITF 2025 Summit on “Transport Resilience to Global Shocks” will take place from 21 to 23 May in Leipzig\, Germany\, under the Internaitional Transport Forum (ITF) Presidency of Chile. \nThe ITF Annual Summit is the world’s largest gathering of transport ministers and the premier global transport policy event.

with the theme of “Commit to Life”\, will bring leaders and experts together to accelerate action towards the Sustainable Development Goals’ target of halving global road deaths by 2030. \nHalfway through the United Nations Decade of Action for Road Safety 2021-2030\, and with just five years left to achieve the Global Goals for Sustainable Development\, participants will assess progress\, identify priorities\, share knowledge\, forge and strengthen alliances\, and advance commitments and actions to save more lives on the world’s roads. \nRoad safety is an urgent and preventable global health crisis. Road crashes claim the lives of nearly 1.2 million people around the world each year – around 3200 every day – and are the leading cause of death among children and young people aged 5-29. \nYet global road deaths are falling\, slightly. More than half of all UN Member States report declining deaths in recent years\, and 10 of these countries have halved deaths in 10 years\, showing that a 50% reduction is possible. At the Ministerial Conference\, participants will learn from\, and build on\, these successes to spur more improvements around the world. \nParticipants will include ministers\, heads of national road safety agencies\, government representatives from authorities at all levels as well as from connected sectors\, parliamentarians\, experts from the United Nations\, civil society\, business and academia.[/vc_column_text][vc_button button_color=”color-114213″ border_width=”0″ link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.roadsafetymorocco.com%2F|target:_blank” button_color_type=”uncode-palette” uncode_shortcode_id=”533544″]Learn more[/vc_button][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row unlock_row_content=”yes” row_height_percent=”0″ override_padding=”yes” h_padding=”0″ top_padding=”3″ bottom_padding=”0″ overlay_alpha=”50″ gutter_size=”3″ column_width_percent=”100″ shift_y=”0″ z_index=”0″ content_parallax=”0″ uncode_shortcode_id=”353251″][vc_column column_width_percent=”100″ position_vertical=”middle” gutter_size=”3″ overlay_alpha=”50″ shift_x=”0″ shift_y=”0″ shift_y_down=”0″ z_index=”0″ medium_width=”0″ mobile_width=”0″ width=”1/1″ uncode_shortcode_id=”197597″][vc_custom_heading text_color=”accent” heading_semantic=”h3″ text_size=”h3″ uncode_shortcode_id=”137236″ text_color_type=”uncode-palette”]Meet IRF team at Booth  D1 and book an appointment![/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text text_lead=”yes” uncode_shortcode_id=”330489″]The IRF will be stationed at  Booth D1 throughout the conference\, and we look forward to engaging in discussions with you there.

The Plan provides a framework to build the institutional capacity\, partnerships and regulatory framework in countries. \nTanzania was the first country in the world to implement the Ten Step Plan.  Jointly funded by the United Nations Road Safety Fund (UNRSF)\, UKAid and Global Road Safety Facility (GRSF)\, and under the guidance of the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA)\, the project was implemented by a consortium of the International Road Federation (IRF)\, iRAP\, the World Road Association (PIARC) and the Tanzania Roads Association (TARA)\, together with the Government of Tanzania and local agencies. \nThe project led to the launch of a locally led TanRAP Road Assessment Programme; a Training and Accreditation Scheme to build local capacity; recommendations for a National Road Safety Strategy and revisions to the Road Geometric Design Manual; and expansion of more than 10\,000 km of safety assessments using the global iRAP methodology influencing more than USD$1 billion of development bank investment. The project was awarded a 2023 Prince Michael International Road Safety Award. \nWith the support of a grant from the UNRSF\, iRAP\, IRF and EASST are supporting Tajikistan\, Uzbekistan\, and Kyrgyzstan on a key step of the Ten Step Plan\, to update road design standards\, as part of the Safe and Inclusive Road Design – Central Asia project. \nAlso with the support of a grant from the UNRSF\, Senegal and international partners will soon begin implementing a Ten Step Senegal Project\, with an aim of building capacity and helping to catalyse investment in safer roads. \n\n\nThe Ten Step Plan offers a template that can be adopted by any country and implemented in a way that matches the specific local context and needs\, to empower safer mobility for all road users. \n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][/vc_column][/vc_row] URL:https://irfofficial.org/event/ten-steps-to-2030-for-safer-road-infrastructure/ CATEGORIES:Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://irfofficial.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Ten-Steps-to-2030-Marrakech-Dateclaimer.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20250105 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20250110 DTSTAMP:20251101T093749 CREATED:20241209T171101Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241219T120206Z UID:42932-1736035200-1736467199@irfofficial.org SUMMARY:TRB Annual Meeting 2025 DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_single_image media=”42933″ media_width_percent=”80″ uncode_shortcode_id=”642879″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_custom_heading uncode_shortcode_id=”201530″]About the Event \n[/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”614416″]The International Road Federation (IRF) is pleased to support the Transportation Research Board (TRB) 104th Annual Meeting to be held on 5-9 January 2025 in Washington\, D.C. \nExpected to attract thousands of transportation professionals from around the world\, the meeting programme covers all transportation modes\, with sessions and workshops addressing topics of interest to policymakers\, administrators\, practitioners\, researchers\, and representatives of government\, industry\, and academic institutions. \n[/vc_column_text][vc_button button_color=”color-114213″ border_width=”0″ link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Ftrb-annual-meeting.nationalacademies.org%2F|target:_blank” button_color_type=”uncode-palette” uncode_shortcode_id=”398644″]Learn more[/vc_button][/vc_column][/vc_row] URL:https://irfofficial.org/event/trb-annual-meeting-2025/ CATEGORIES:Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://irfofficial.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/2025-EVENT-BANNERS.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20241120 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20241121 DTSTAMP:20251101T093749 CREATED:20241114T171949Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241115T134559Z UID:41402-1732060800-1732147199@irfofficial.org SUMMARY:Global Youth Coalition for Road Safety - Live Session on World Sustainable Transport Day DESCRIPTION:[vc_row row_height_percent=”0″ overlay_alpha=”50″ gutter_size=”3″ column_width_percent=”100″ shift_y=”0″ z_index=”0″ content_parallax=”0″ uncode_shortcode_id=”970176″][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_single_image media=”41405″ dynamic=”yes” media_width_percent=”80″ alignment=”center” uncode_shortcode_id=”116923″ media_link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Firfofficial.org%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2024%2F11%2FBanner-campaign-monitor.png”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row unlock_row_content=”yes” row_height_percent=”0″ override_padding=”yes” h_padding=”0″ top_padding=”3″ bottom_padding=”0″ overlay_alpha=”50″ gutter_size=”3″ column_width_percent=”100″ shift_y=”0″ z_index=”0″ content_parallax=”0″ uncode_shortcode_id=”353251″][vc_column column_width_percent=”100″ position_vertical=”middle” gutter_size=”3″ overlay_alpha=”50″ shift_x=”0″ shift_y=”0″ shift_y_down=”0″ z_index=”0″ medium_width=”0″ mobile_width=”0″ width=”1/1″ uncode_shortcode_id=”197597″][vc_custom_heading text_color=”color-201648″ uncode_shortcode_id=”116023″ text_color_type=”uncode-palette”]About the event[/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text text_lead=”yes” uncode_shortcode_id=”270529″]The Global Youth Coalition for Road Safety is hosting a live session on 20 November from 15:00 – 16:30 CET in observance of World Sustainable Transport Day.
