iRAP is excited to be joining the\u00a04th Global Ministerial Conference on Road Safety<\/a> in Marrakech from 18-20 February, with Side Events (including our Ten Steps to 2030 for Safer Road Infrastructure Event<\/a>) from 15-20 February.<\/p>\n

The Ministerial Conference will bring together global leaders, policymakers, and road safety advocates from 193 countries to assess progress made in implementing the Global Plan for Road Safety 2021-2030 during its initial five-year period, and catalyse transformative actions to achieve the SDG target of halving global road deaths and injuries by 2030.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll be sharing our partners\u2019 success utilising the iRAP methodology and tools to eliminate high-risk roads in countries, and the lifesaving potential of achieving UN Targets 3 and 4 by 2030<\/a> with government authorities shaping their next five-year plans.<\/p>\n

See the official Ministerial Conference website here<\/a> for the latest program and to registration.<\/p>\n

Road safety remains a critical issue in North and West Africa, with vulnerable road users disproportionately affected. The UNRSF “Safe and Inclusive Road Design in North and West Africa” project aims to address this challenge by fostering collaboration, updating road design standards, and ensuring inclusivity in transport infrastructure planning across Mauritania, Morocco, and Senegal. This special session will provide a platform to highlight the project\u2019s approach, share experiences from other similar projects and initiatives, and engage different stakeholders in a constructive dialogue on advancing safe and inclusive road design for sustainable development in the region.

Numerous countries and cities have integrated the Safe System approach into their road safety strategies. The approach is also central to the operations of many public and private organizations. Session panelists will discuss how a Safe System approach guides road safety strategies and what it truly means in practice, key issues in implementation, and how these challenges can be overcome. It will also discuss the ITF Safe System framework tool, and how it has helped practitioners in pilot projects to design and improve their road safety strategies and plans.<\/p>\n

To achieve the goal of halving road deaths and injuries by 2030, collaborative arrangements between the public and private sector are essential, such as innovative financing and public private partnerships (PPPs). This session will showcase compelling and replicable examples of collaborations aimed at reducing road trauma, which include joint investment in road safety technology; mass-transit solutions; co-funded infrastructure upgrades; and partnerships for public awareness campaigns.<\/p>\n

Worldwide, the use of Powered Two Wheelers (PTW) is growing rapidly and PTW users are estimated to be the largest group being killed on the world\u2019s roads. This session will include leading voices in policy, industry, and technology, for a high-impact dialogue on advancing PTW safety worldwide. Insights from iRAP\u2019s interactive Powered Two Wheelers and Road Infrastructure Safety Report<\/a> will inform discussions, drawing on data for almost 500,000km of roads that have flows of PTWs in more than 80 countries.<\/p>\n

Many countries and cities globally have adopted the Safe System approach to road safety, to maximise the potential to save lives. Effective implementation of the approach is critical to reaching the Decade goal of #50by30. This session will be an opportunity to review the progress made by jurisdictions that have embraced the Safe System and discuss how these learnings can be applied across LMICs. It will also be an opportunity to identify the enablers and blockers to effective implementation to help countries accelerate their road safety progress.<\/p>\n
