World Cycling Alliance
The Global Voice for Everyday Cycling
Further Information
Our History
In 2013, the Annual General Meeting of ECF approved the proposal to found and to launch the WCA at the Velo-city Global Conference 2014 in Adelaide based on the approved Terms of Reference. These Terms call for the establishment of an International Steering Board to oversee the development and governance of the Alliance.
There Terms require the WCA to be a truly worldwide network, with its governance represented globally, with one Steering Board member per continent.
In December 2018, the World Cycling Alliance was formally incorporated by the Belgium Ministry and registered as a not-for-profit International Association AISBL, with the inaugural Board established.
