Make Road Safe is the Campaign for Global Road Safety attempting to put global road injuries on the G8 and UN sustainable development agendas. [...]
We are calling on the international community to recognise road traffic injuries as a global health epidemic, and to take urgent action to stop the daily tragedy of thousands of preventable deaths and injuries.
In 2008, as a result of the support of more than a million people around the world, our campaign secured UN approval for the first Global Ministerial Meeting on Road Safety, which will be held in November 2009.
More than a million people signed our petition to the UN which was handed to UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon on 31st March 2008, the day the UN approved the first Ministerial Conference on global road safety.
When governments meet at this UN Conference in Moscow in November 2009 we want them to commit to a ‘Decade of Action for Road Safety 2010-2020’ with the aim of reducing the projected increase in road deaths by 50% by 2020. Instead of around 1.8 million people dying in 2020 – compared with 1.3 million now – the number of fatalities by 2020 can and should fall below 1 million a year if the right action is taken.
To secure this ambitious goal we need your support, your voice, your activism. Add your name to the campaign, write to your political representative, tell your friends and colleagues. We all know someone who has been affected by a road crash. For their sakes, act.
