Las últimas métricas cuantifican el impacto global de los socios.

Our latest programme metrics underscore the life-saving power of iRAP partnerships – helping prevent almost 860,000 deaths and injuries, delivering more than 4.2 million kilometres of road safety assessments across 140 countries influencing the safety of US$120 billion in infrastructure investment, and training nearly 93,000 people.

Each June and December, we compile a comprehensive global analysis of partner activity to measure impact and celebrate progress.

The latest figures, as at the end of 2025, are made possible thanks to the generous support of our major donor the FIA Foundation; programme supporters Aleatica Foundation and Prudence Foundation; and the outstanding commitment of our 38,000 partners worldwide.

Entre los aspectos más destacados se incluyen:

Lives and injuries saved

  • Investigación realizada por la Universidad Johns Hopkins, publicado en la prestigiosa revista PLOS One, estimates that iRAP partners have prevented nearly 860,000 deaths and serious injuries using the iRAP methodology and tools to inform road safety infrastructure changes and safer speeds between 2016 and the end of 2025.

Assessments informing safer road upgrades

  • To date, 2 million km of roads and designs have been Clasificación por estrellas and 2.2 million km have been Crash Mapeo de riesgos in 140 countries.
  • The assessments are influencing US$120 billion of safer roads upgrades for pedestrians, bicyclists, motorcyclists and vehicle occupants.
  • In the last six months, Star Rating assessments have been conducted in 31 countries, including:
    • First iRAP assessments completed in Armenia, Chad, Guinea, Kyrgyzstan, Lithuania and Oman.
    • Large assessments (>1,000km) completed in Australia (21,298km), Thailand (17,243km), the United Kingdom (12,278km), Saudi Arabia (9,249km), South Africa (4,017km), Mexico (3,832km), USA (3,219km), Uruguay (2,376km), Indonesia (2,280km), Brazil (1,825km) and Oman (1,489km).

Mapa de evaluaciones de calificación por estrellas de ViDA (excluye el mapeo de riesgos)

  • Over 97,000km of Risk Mapping has been added in the last six months based on annual assessments undertaken in Australia, Spain and the United Kingdom, along with longer-term performance tracking assessments in Tunisia and New Zealand helping to inform advocacy and strategic investment planning.
  • Over 65,000km of Los diseños han sido calificados con estrellas. globally over all time, with designs analysis occurring for the first time this period in Burundi, New Zealand and Senegal. Larger Star Rating for Designs (SR4D) projects have been undertaken in Papua New Guinea (3,759km), Brazil (1,099km), Mozambique (363km), Senegal (162km), Australia (156km), Costa Rica (153km),  Mongolia (141km), Uruguay (67km) and New Zealand (51km). Two projects advanced during the year are helping to improve the safety of road design standards. The Proyecto de Diseño Seguro e Inclusivo en Asia Central (now complete) is helping to improve road design standards in Tajikistan, Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan, with the release of a Safe Road Design Guidance and potential region-wide impact. In addition, the UN Road Safety Fund-supported Safe and Inclusive Design in Morocco, Mauritania and Senegal project is supporting safer road design in these three countries. Designs are also being made safer supported by other Herramientas iRAP como el Demostrador de clasificación por estrellas.
  • El Route Review Tool is in use in 18 countries. It enables engineers to review an iRAP road safety assessment, Safer Roads Investment Plans, and predictions for fatal and serious injuries, and suggest infrastructure changes based on their own expertise and local knowledge. Using the iRAP model, User Defined Investment Plans can be generated, estimating the affect proposed changes will have on the Star Rating of the road and injury reductions.

Safer school journeys

  • Star Rating for Schools (SR4S) celebrated five years of inspirational partner impact in February during the 4th Global Ministerial Conference in Marrakech.
  • 2,475 schools have now been assessed by SR4S partners in 84 countries, positively impacting the safety of an estimated 515,305 students.
  • Schools were assessed for the first time in Burundi, Jordan, Palestine and Zimbabwe. Saudi Arabia leads the world with the highest number of schools assessed (321 schools), followed by Vietnam (278), Philippines (259), Uruguay (134) and India (133).
  • El Aplicación para la Participación Juvenil (YEA), developed as part of the Botnar Ai&Me project has been highly successful in capturing youth perceptions of risk, with pins marking where 4,495 children feel safe and unsafe on their journey to school supporting SR4S results. YEA pilot projects are now extending beyond Vietnam to Peru, South Africa and Chile.
  • El Empowering Youth for Liveable Cities (AI&Me2) project is focused on youth engagement. It includes scalability to new countries and technical enhancements to Star Rating for Schools and the YEA app. In addition, the Google AI for the Global Goals Project is further leveraging Artificial Intelligence (AI), SR4S and AiRAP partnerships for big data analysis and road safety impact Vietnam-wide.
