Background

The International Transport Forum is an OECD forum comprising sixty-four nations. It hosts a summit of transport ministers in Leipzig every year in May. In 2023, FIM’s Commission for Mobility (CPM) will become a lead sponsor for this event. We will use this platform to promote motorcycles as a solution for many urban mobility problems as well as address some of the concerns that motorcycling has created for policy makers.
