The World Road Association contributes to the UN Global Road Safety Week

8 - 14 May 2017

The World Road Association decided in 2011 to support the the United Nations Decade of Action on Improving Global Road Safety. The next United Nations Global Road Safety Week, to be held from 8 to 14 May 2017, is an opportunity to recall this commitment.

Indeed, the Association has developed numerous reports, manuals, state-of-the-art and seminars on this subject. They are available free of charge to anyone who wants to contribute to the fight for road safety. Our new Strategic Plan continues this effort and dedicates two Technical Committees to the development of road safety knowledge.
