We've officially launched the YOURS Academy!

 
 
 


YOURS - Youth for Road Safety has officially launched its newest interactive learning platform, the YOURS Academy. The Academy is the definitive online road safety learning school where youth can learn about the global road safety crisis. It takes all the best practices from YOURS’ award-winning in-person trainings and turns them into a self-paced learning experience that young people can access anytime, anywhere. 

Road safety education plays a necessary and vital role in empowering young people. Through the YOURS capacity development sessions, young leaders are able to continuously develop their knowledge, skills, and abilities around road safety, sustainable mobility, and meaningful youth participation. 

The YOURS Academy shoots from an evidence-based background and provides youth with access to information, motivation, resources, and skills that they can apply in local and global initiatives as road safety leaders and advocates. The Academy presents the data-rich modules in an easy-to-follow, engaging, and gamified format aimed to resonate well with young people.

The modules in the Academy are brain-friendly, based on realities young people face around the world, and are reflective of the unique ways youth communicate. It will also provide young people with the tools and information necessary to make the most impactful road safety projects and initiatives locally and globally. Later, the Academy will also serve as a portal to educate decision-makers on how to meaningfully engage with youth in road safety. This will support our mission of bridging the gap between policymakers and young leaders.

The first module of the YOURS Academy is free for everyone. If you're ready to develop your knowledge and skills with our online courses, you're on your way to getting closer to seeing the change you want in your community.
