The UN Road Safety Fund has launched its 2021 Annual Report with public and private sector and civil society partners, including the FIA Foundation, at a media event during the International Transport Forum Summit in Leipzig, Germany.
Over the past two years the FIA Foundation’s Board of Trustees has undertaken an in-depth review of our work and our future strategy. As we enter the UN Decade of Action for the Sustainable Development Goals, and a second Decade of Action for Road Safety, what do we as a Foundation want to help to achieve by 2030? There are six, inter-related, goals that we want to influence.
The Stockholm Declaration calling for default 30km/h speed limits on urban streets, prioritisation of Safe System design to enable walking and cycling, a stronger focus on safe infrastructure on highways, and better integration of traffic safety within the Sustainable Development Goals, including the UN’s strategy for children and adolescents, has been adopted by the 3rd Global Ministerial Conference on Road Safety, held in Stockholm, Sweden, on 19-20 February 2020.
A new €15 million Advocacy Hub for safe streets has been launched by the FIA Foundation to support the policy change needed to limit speeds to 30 km/h (20 mph) on streets where children walk, live and play, at the start of UN Global Road Safety Week.
