United Nations - Improving global road safety 2014

 

On 10 April 2014 the UN General Assembly adopted the “Improving global road safety” Resolution sponsored by the Russian Government. Among key decisions, the Resolution welcomes the offer of the Government of Brazil to host the Second Global Ministerial Conference on Road Safety in 2015, encourages the inclusion of road safety in the post-2015 development agenda, invites WHO to continue monitoring progress in the Decade of Action and requests organization of the Third UN Global Road Safety Week in 2015 on children and road safety. It backs calls for road safety to be considered in developing post-2015 global “Sustainable Development Goals” which are key to finance for road safety.
