The 2021 iRAP Innovation Workshop co-hosted with the Regional Road Safety Observatories will be presented free in 5 languages (English, Spanish, Portuguese, French and Russian) on 7 and 14 October and will shine a light on “Data Driven Innovation to Halve Global Road Deaths by 2030”.
Effective action, policy-making and investment will require accurate road safety data collected through transparent, rigorous and efficient methods that meet the global safety standard for benchmarking and comparison across time.
The Regional Road Safety Observatories (RRSOs) in Africa (ARSO), Asia-Pacífico (APRSO), Iberoamérica (OISEVI), Europa (ERSO), Balcanes occidentales (WBRSO) and Eastern Partnership Road Safety Observatory (EaP) supported by iRAP y otras organizaciones intergubernamentales, tienen como objetivo acelerar las mejoras a nivel nacional en la recopilación de datos, los análisis y la toma de decisiones.
Big data and artificial intelligence will play a lead role in building the social and economic business case for safer roads and creating the scale of change needed to save millions of lives in the Second UN Decade of Action and to achieve the 12 UN Global Road Safety Performance Targets relevant to all countries. Targets 3 and 4 particularly pertain to safer road infrastructure and include ensuring all new roads are built to a 3-star or better standard for all road users (Target 3), and more than 75% of travel is on the equivalent of 3-star or better roads for all road users by 2030 (Target 4).
The 2021 iRAP Innovation Workshop will be a 2-part online event bringing together global innovation, policy, technical and road safety leaders, along with investment experts, with the capacity to implement change and eliminate high-risk roads.
The Workshop will explore the data need and shine a light on cutting-edge practice and emerging research and innovation in data collection, partnerships and programmes. A global challenge requires a global solution and the regional road safety observatories present an opportunity for joint regional efforts and economies of scale. Partnership opportunities for efficiencies of scale in resourcing and implementation will be investigated.
Workshop sessions will focus on:
- Un mundo libre de carreteras de alto riesgo y el papel fundamental de los RRSO.
- Éxitos en seguridad basados en datos
- ¿Cómo podrían los macrodatos cambiar las reglas del juego en materia de seguridad vial?
- Aplicaciones de macrodatos para la seguridad vial
- Soluciones de telemática y datos de velocidad
- Flotas y predicción de accidentes
- Reflexiones sobre las oportunidades para los Observatorios Regionales de Seguridad Vial y el futuro.
