UN Road Safety Collaboration - Twenty Years on

19 April 2024

The UN Road Safety Collaboration (UNRSC) was established in 2004 following the UN General Assembly (GA) resolution 58/289 inviting WHO, working in close cooperation with the UN regional commissions, to act as coordinator on road safety issues across the UN system.

T he UNRSC brings together representatives from Members States, UN agencies, Development Banks, and other global road safety stakeholders from NGOs, academia, philanthropic foundations and private sector.

RoadSafe is proud to have been a member of the UNRSC since early in its life and is pleased yo have been part of this informal consultative mechanism whose goal is to facilitate international cooperation and strengthen global and regional coordination among UN agencies and other international partners to implement UN General Assembly Resolutions on road safety.
