RAP in Europe
On November 7, the EuroRAP General Assembly took an historic step and unanimously voted for the dissolution of the EuroRAP entity. After 21 years of existence, the RAP programme in Europe is now being integrated into iRAP, the International Road Assessment Programme.
EuroRAP members have been instrumental in laying the foundation and inspiration for the Global Programme, which is now active in nearly 130 countries.
Today, with this integration, RAP partners across Europe will benefit from having a streamlined administration and a more productive use of donor and partner resources.
The integration does not affect how you can make use of the iRAP tools, methodology, and resources which are already in extensive use across the region. These will remain freely available, as they currently are worldwide, for the benefit of all in road safety. Most importantly, the integration leverages iRAP’s well-established organizational structure, shaped around innovation and development, programme support, and delivery of strategic projects.
Road authorities and iRAP partners in Europe will come together from 4 to 5 September in Brussels to share best practice and strategies for achieving ambitious national, European and global road safety targets.
With the theme “Half way to 2030: Gearing up for Safer Mobility in Urban and Rural Environments“, the two-day iRAP-hosted event will focus on the necessary management, prioritisation, design and finance of safe road infrastructure improvements in rural and urban contexts to achieve the 2030 goals.
This is an invite only event however presentations will be made available after the event.
