A GLOBAL YOUTH MOVEMENT

 

The Global Youth Coalition for Road Safety unites individual youth and organisations for road safety and sustainable mobility. We offer you resources, skills, partnerships, and opportunities to take your ideas to the next level and maximise your impact. We believe that global and local action is needed to make the world’s roads safer for everyone. We connect it with related topics such as health, sustainable cities, climate change, education, poverty and equality.

We are passionate young people from across the world taking action on safe mobility issues. We’re championing meaningful youth participation in road safety and beyond and you are invited to be part of this movement! Let’s keep #ClaimingOurSpace at the decision-making table for safe and sustainable mobility!

Learn more about the global youth statement!

 

At the 3rd World Youth Assembly in Marrakech, young leaders from 49 countries came together to call for urgent road safety and mobility justice action. The result is a powerful global declaration that captures youth priorities and solutions to transform transport systems.

The Statement calls on decision-makers to:

  • Double investment in youth-led road safety and sustainable mobility.

  • Boost multi-sectoral and intergenerational collaboration.

  • Establish effective and tangible accountability mechanisms.

Road crashes are A GLOBAL CRISIS THAT NEED

ACTION RIGHT NOW

Young people matter. Today's generation of young people is the largest ever in our history. Over 3 billion people – nearly half of the world's population – are under the age of 25. Of these children and young people, more than 1000 die every day on the world’s roads. Tens of thousands more are injured.

Road traffic injuries have been the leading killer of young people worldwide for over a decade, so why are youth so often not included in preventing these tragedies?

Young people have a right to be adequately informed, consulted and empowered to contribute to preventing road traffic injuries.
