    How to become a UNRSF participating UN organization?

    Below you may find some steps to becoming a PUNO should your organisation wish to be eligible for future calls: 

    • Send the secretariat a justification explaining why your organisation wishes to join as a PUNO, what value it could bring and for which of the five core pillars (road safety management, safe roads, safe vehicle, safe user and post-crash response) - 1-page max for the justification.  

    • The secretariat will send it for review and approval by the Steering Committee. 

    • If approved, then an MOU would need to be signed with MPTFO, and then that would render you a PUNO.

  • What amount is available for projects under a Call for Proposals?

    The total amount of funds to be disbursed for a Call is disclosed annually upon the announcement of the call for proposals. Individual project budget must be a minimum of US$ 100,000 per participating organization with an upper limit of US$ 500,000 per proposal.

  • What is the frequency of UNRSF Calls for Proposals?

    Generally, there is one Call for Proposals per year.

  • Does the UNRSF fund infrastructure projects?

    UNRSF will not fund infrastructure construction projects but can finance projects seeking expertise and/or capacity building on safe infrastructure (such as marking/signalling of roads, and pedestrian crossing points) or activities aimed at improved design of road infrastructure. 

    Permissible projects with a small infrastructure component would need to contribute to informing policy or building capacity; these could be as a pilot, proof of concept or part of a feasibility study.

  • How can my organization apply for UNRSF funding?

    Only participating organizations who signed an MoU are eligible for direct access to funding under the UNRSF Call for Proposals.  

    These organizations receive funding based on funding proposals they submit to the Fund when the Fund issues a Call for Proposals. They then work with external organizations to implement the approved initiative. 

    If you seek funding for a road safety project, please contact the participating organization most applicable for you to work with. Please refer to the list of participating organisations and their respective engagement strategies.
