The global community has committed to halving the number of road traffic deaths by 2030. The most significant opportunity to meet this commitment is to change the status quo in low- and middle-income countries where 90% of global road deaths occur. Join the UN Road Safety Fund, its high-level partners and the UN Special Envoy for Road Safety and learn about the latest approaches that make roads safer. Hear from experts how locally-rooted global solutions can build resilience and save lives, thanks to joint action by governments and the private sector with investments in safe, sustainable and inclusive transport systems.
