It was a pleasure joining colleagues in Geneva last week at the World Health Organization (WHO) launch unveiling the first global status report on drowning prevention. By working with national & local governments to implement proven policies like swim instruction and childcare we can save lives.

Road crashes are the leading cause of death for youth 5-29 with nearly 1.2M lives lost annually  — yet many are preventable. Mike Bloomberg & Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus urge leaders to create safer streets, stronger standards & implement proven evidence-based policies. Read the full @Devex

Driving meaningful change in #roadsafety starts with collaboration. I had the privilege of meeting with Malaysia’s Ministry of Works to discuss how we can advance data-driven solutions, improve infrastructure, and raise awareness together.

It was a pleasure meeting with Maimunah Mohd Sharif in Kuala Lumpur to discuss efforts to reduce road traffic fatalities as part of Bloomberg Philanthropies Global Road Safety Initiative. The city's commitment to safer streets includes redesigns, reducing speed limits & enforcing traffic laws

The World Health Organization (WHO)’s first Global status report on drowning prevention shows a 38% drop in deaths since 2000, but drowning remains a leading cause of child mortality, with 90%+ of deaths in low- & middle-income countries. Watch the full video to learn more: youtu.be/vwOl4aEpZlo

Heads of national road safety agencies will meet this week to discuss opportunities to reach the World Health Organization (WHO)’s global goal of halving road deaths by 2030. Bloomberg Philanthropies is proud to partner with WHO to support initiatives that will contribute to this reduction. who.int/news/item/11-0…

I'm encouraged to see reports like this from Ethiopia, noting traffic fatalities in Addis Ababa have dropped 16% with reduction in speeding as a key factor. Bloomberg Philanthropies supports these efforts and promotes road safety work to save lives and prevent avoidable tragedies.

Media coverage on road crashes in Africa often focuses on human error but ignores systemic issues like poor infrastructure or enforcement. It’s critical for everyone to understand the importance of road safety interventions and their impact. Learn more:msn.com/en-xl/news/oth…

I had the honor of speaking on a panel about the need for data to drive policy and real change at the 4th Global Ministerial Conference on Road Safety. Proud of the collaboration between Bloomberg Philanthropies & World Health Organization (WHO) to meet the goal of reducing road traffic deaths by 50% by 2030.

I am excited to speak at Transforming Transportation next week hosted by World Bank and World Resources Institute. The 2025 forum will focus on turning policy into action for equitable, sustainable, and safe transportation systems. #ttdc25 transformingtransportation.org
