20 years of UN Road Safety. As Etienne Krug says, a lot of hard work and persistent #advocacy . There is still much to be done. But these first 20 years are the foundation for the future ahead of us.

🥳 20 years! 🥳

So proud of all the incredible work the road safety community has done to reduce the number of road traffic deaths around the world 🚦

We've seen a reduction in global figures in road-related deaths (great news) but the work still continues

Onward and upward 🚀

🎂 Today we celebrated 20 years of United Nations Collaboration on #RoadSafety . 20 years of:
👉 Hard work
👉 Persistent advocacy
👉 Country+local action
👉 Multi-sectoral collaboration
None of it would have been possible without amazing commitment from so many friends 🙏🙏🙏

Road safety requires leadership from the top. President Chirac made it a top priority and deaths on the road in France declined considerably since.
It is an excellent example of how political leadership makes all the difference.

Today we celebrate 20 years since the launch of World Health Organization (WHO) World Bank “World Report on Road Traffic #InjuryPrevention ” which launched a movement for #RoadSafety . Proud of our achievements, but we still have a long way to go! bit.ly/3JacYY8 #RethinkMobility
