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

Um sistema de transporte genuinamente sustent\u00e1vel protege todos que o utilizam. Garantir que ruas, estradas e rodovias sejam classificadas em pelo menos 3 estrelas (de um total de 5 estrelas) e sejam fundamentalmente seguras para todos os modos de viagem, habilidades e deslocamentos esperados \u00e9 essencial para alcan\u00e7ar isso.<\/p>\n

Road safety is part of the SDGs (see\u00a03.6<\/a>\u00a0e\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>\u00a0e o\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

Metas de Desempenho Global em Seguran\u00e7a Vi\u00e1ria 3 e 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,\u00a0os custos de colis\u00e3o caem para aproximadamente a metade<\/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

Ambientes rodovi\u00e1rios seguros tamb\u00e9m apoiam a escolha; quando as pessoas sentem que um ambiente \u00e9 seguro, elas s\u00e3o mais propensas a se sentirem confort\u00e1veis caminhando, pedalando e usando os sistemas de transporte p\u00fablico que ser\u00e3o necess\u00e1rios para atender com seguran\u00e7a a uma maior demanda por mobilidade urbana.<\/p>\n

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

A ado\u00e7\u00e3o de metas de Star Rating e a incorpora\u00e7\u00e3o de princ\u00edpios de seguran\u00e7a baseados em evid\u00eancias e interven\u00e7\u00f5es precocemente no planejamento de ruas, estradas, rodovias, sistemas de transporte p\u00fablico e qualquer desenvolvimento que influencie o movimento de pessoas ou ve\u00edculos nas estradas, \u00e9 uma maneira confi\u00e1vel para os governos minimizarem os custos de implementa\u00e7\u00e3o, ao mesmo tempo em que maximizam os benef\u00edcios de seguran\u00e7a.<\/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 #SaferRoadsPledge campaign<\/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
