2nd International Convention on Rural Roads

Following the successful experience of the first Convention on Rural Roads held in Tanzania last November, the convention aims this year to help the communities, government agencies, NGOs, development agencies and sector practitioners identify aspects of the current Rural Transport sector that can be improved. It will offer to delegates an excellent opportunity to gain insight in the latest research outcomes and experiences in the impacts, planning, management and construction of rural roads as well as their safety, through its plenary sessions and panel debates.

The Convention will be a unique opportunity for governments, private businesses, NGOs and other sector stakeholders to come together, exchange and discuss the experiences from Asia and other developing regions.
