About the IRF World Congress 2024
Istanbul – the city on two continents – will be hosting the IRF World Congress on 15-18 October 2024. Held every four years, the IRF World Congress has represented – for almost seven decades – an opportunity to celebrate the road and mobility sectors as enablers of growth and development.
Embracing the theme “Connecting to Empower Mobility: Roads as Enablers of a Sustainable Future for All”, the congress will serve as a platform for global leaders, industry experts, academia, and diverse public and private stakeholders to engage in insightful discussions and collaborative efforts, addressing pivotal issues and exploring innovations within the road and mobility sectors.
“The chosen theme reflects our dedication to envisioning a future where roads serve as pathways to empower mobility in all its forms – whether on foot, on a bicycle, on public transport or a motor vehicle, in urban or rural areas – thus connecting communities and fostering sustainable development on a global scale”, emphasises IRF President, Mr Anouar Benazzouz. “The IRF World Congress 2024 will be an inspiring journey on how to pave the way for a future where roads are part of a transportation system that unites, empowers, and provides access to opportunities to all”, he added.
The mysticism of the East and the modernity of the West, the constant time travel between the past and the future, the balance of the traditional and the modern.
