To kickstart the coming United Nations Decade of Sustainable Transport (2026\u20132035)<\/a>, a global call is out for\u00a0Sustainable Transport Action Commitments\u00a0<\/a>by Member States and stakeholders which aim to deliver concrete progress in the Decade. We call on our partners to submit their commitments by 14 November<\/strong> including road infrastructure safety as a priority!<\/p>\n

Why is your safety commitment important?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Un sistema de transporte verdaderamente sostenible protege a todos sus usuarios. Para lograrlo, es fundamental garantizar que las calles, carreteras y autopistas tengan una calificaci\u00f3n m\u00ednima de 3 estrellas (sobre un total de 5) y sean fundamentalmente seguras para todos los medios de transporte, capacidades y trayectos previstos.<\/p>\n

Road safety is part of the SDGs (see\u00a03.6<\/a>\u00a0y\u00a011.2<\/a>) and is a key enabler for a wide range of priorities including economic growth, resilient infrastructure, trade, global supply chains, health promotion, climate action, poverty reduction, and access to education.<\/p>\n

By aligning the Decade of Sustainable Transport (2026-2035) with the\u00a0Global Plan for the Decade of Action for Road Safety (2021\u20132030)<\/a>\u00a0y el\u00a0Safe System Approach<\/a>, there is an opportunity to create continuity in action and build momentum on safe road infrastructure, integrating safety into all aspects of transport planning.<\/p>\n

Objetivos Mundiales de Desempe\u00f1o en Seguridad Vial 3 y 4<\/a>\u00a0encourage governments to lift roads and designs to 3-stars or better for all road users. For each Star Rating improvement of a road or design,\u00a0los costos de los choques se reducen aproximadamente a la mitad<\/a>. Investment projects that have made use of the freely-available iRAP methodology and resources\u00a0have already prevented hundreds of thousands of deaths and serious injuries<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Los entornos viales seguros tambi\u00e9n fomentan la libertad de elecci\u00f3n; cuando las personas perciben que un entorno es seguro, es m\u00e1s probable que se sientan c\u00f3modas caminando, andando en bicicleta y utilizando los sistemas de transporte p\u00fablico que ser\u00e1n necesarios para satisfacer de forma segura la creciente demanda de movilidad urbana.<\/p>\n

What to commit to?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Adoptar objetivos de clasificaci\u00f3n por estrellas e incorporar principios e intervenciones de seguridad basados en la evidencia desde las primeras etapas de la planificaci\u00f3n de calles, carreteras, autopistas, sistemas de transporte p\u00fablico y cualquier desarrollo que influya en el movimiento de personas o veh\u00edculos en las carreteras, es una forma fiable para que los gobiernos minimicen los costos de implementaci\u00f3n y maximicen los beneficios en materia de seguridad.<\/p>\n

Committing to the achievement of Global Road Safety Performance Targets 3 and 4 will ensure safety is embedded in road designs and infrastructure upgrades.<\/p>\n

iRAP, the International Road Federation (IRF) and the FIA Foundation’s Campa\u00f1a \u00ab#SaferRoadsPledge\u00bb<\/a> calls on organisations involved in designing and financing roads to pledge their commitment to safer roads and mobility in support of sustainable transport and the SDGs.<\/p>\n

Member States and stakeholders can reference the Pledge text below when submitting their voluntary commitments for the UN Decade of Sustainable Transport:<\/p>\n

Submit your voluntary Sustainable Transport Commitment by 14 November<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

How will commitments be used?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Commitments will be highlighted throughout the UN Decade of Sustainable Transport at different United Nations events, starting with the 10 December 2025 launch of the Implementation Plan of the United Nations Decade of Sustainable Transport. To enhance transparency and accountability, all initiatives will be registered on a dedicated digital space, hosted on the UN Decade website, which allows the public to access information. The action commitments will become a prominent part of the implementation and follow-up of the UN Decade. Implementing entities will be invited to share updates on progress later during the UN Decade.<\/p>\n

Stakeholder Briefing<\/strong><\/p>\n

A virtual briefing webinar, organized by UN DESA, will be held on 16 October 2025, from 9:30AM \u2013 10:30AM (EDT\/New York Time). It aims to provide an opportunity to share updated information with stakeholders about the 10 December launch event, the call for Sustainable Transport Action Commitments and the development of the UN Decade of Sustainable Transport Implementation Plan.

The Draft Implementation Plan – Call for Stakeholder Final Comments and Reflections<\/strong><\/p>\n

DESA has prepared the draft Implementation Plan for the Decade of Sustainable Transport<\/a>, an action-oriented global policy document, in collaboration with the United Nations Regional Commissions. As requested by the General Assembly, DESA has actively consulted Member States, specialized agencies, funds, programmes and bodies of the United Nations, as well as other intergovernmental organizations, non-governmental organizations and relevant stakeholders to seek inputs to the Implementation Plan. This includes the online stakeholder consultation<\/a> that resulted in valuable inputs from 113 organizations across 45 countries.<\/p>\n

Stakeholders are now invited to provide final comments and reflections on the draft Implementation Plan using this\u00a0dedicated online form<\/a> by 31 October 2025<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The Decade Launch<\/strong><\/p>\n

The launch of the UN Decade of Sustainable Transport will consist of an opening, a high-level segment, showcase of voluntary commitments, and an interactive multi-stakeholder roundtable. The meeting will be open to Member States and Observers, the United Nations system, ECOSOC-accredited non-governmental organizations and other relevant stakeholders through a dedicated registration process.<\/p>\n
