A world free of high-risk roads

The International Road Assessment Programme (iRAP) is a registered charity dedicated to saving lives by eliminating high risk roads throughout the world. Like many life-saving charities working in the public health arena, we use a robust, evidence-based approach to prevent unnecessary deaths and suffering.

iRAP works in partnership with governments, road authorities, mobility clubs, development banks, NGOs and research organisations to:

• Inspect high-risk roads and develop Star Ratings, Risk Maps and Safer Roads Investment Plans
• Provide training, technology and support that will build and sustain national, regional and local capability
• Track road safety performance so that funding agencies can assess the benefits of their investments.

iRAP partners with governments, mobility clubs, development banks, research institutes and road safety NGOs in 140 countries to provide the tools and training to make roads safe.

iRAP is the umbrella organisation for regional RAP programmes including:
