Eveline Prado Trevisan

Architect, urbanist, Master in Social Sciences, and PhD in Urbanism. Trevisan has worked on urban projects for Belo Horizonte City Council since 1993. Since 2012 she has coordinated Belo Horizonte’s bicycle mobility program called Pedala BH. In January 2013 she created GT Pedala BH, a work group that brings together the public power and the civil society. GT Pedala BH is an open, advisory and leaderless work group made up of representatives from the civil society, associations and the public power. The group meets on a monthly basis to discuss bicycle use in Belo Horizonte. Since 2018, she has been working on projects to reduce speed on the streets in order to bring more safety and reframe the role of the street as an important meeting place for people.
