UN Road Safety Fund 2024 Annual Report

2 June 2025

The UN Road Safety Fund continues to support low and middle-income countries to do that by providing road safety expertise to close gaps on road safety data, enforcement practices, vehicle safety, legislative frameworks, post-crash care, urban street design, among other topics.

This UNRSF report shares highlights of how collective efforts are saving lives and driving systemic change in road safety.They include:

  • Brazil’s creation of a national crash data system to inform risk-based infrastructure and enforcement planning;
  • Nepal’s integration of road safety into national policy and first responder training along high-risk corridors;
  • Senegal’s Ten-Step Plan to embed safety in infrastructure design and influence development bank investments;
  • Colombia’s use of participatory urban design to improve pedestrian safety around schools and in vulnerable communities

These milestones, made possible with support from the UN Road Safety Fund, mark important progress on the long journey to improve road safety.
