Community Transport Events Calendar

Transport sits at the crossroads of climate action, sustainability, and social justice. Knowing where the global conversation is happening is how we show up, speak up, and shape outcomes.

This calendar is a one-stop resource for upcoming events that matter to the sustainable transport community: UN climate and SDG processes, sector-specific forums, ministerial summits, research convenings, and key advocacy moments. Urban mobility, freight, road safety, active transport, energy, finance: if it connects to the transformation of transport systems for people and the planet, it belongs here.

SLOCAT partners and friends are welcome to submit events for inclusion. Send your event details to secretariat@slocatpartnership.org.

FIRST CONFERENCE ON TRANSITIONING AWAY FROM FOSSIL FUELS

First Conference on Transitioning Away from Fossil Fuels 28-29 April 2026 | Santa Marta, Colombia Co-hosted by the governments of Colombia and the Netherlands, this landmark conference is the first in a series aimed at advancing international cooperation on phasing out fossil fuel extraction.

A follow-up conference hosted by Pacific nation-states is planned within a year. SLOCAT will be represented at this event.
