On engaging young people, YOURS - Youth for Road Safety Executive Director Floor Lieshout says "Who better than young people to convince other young people? This social media challenge gives them an opportunity to create inspiring and creative content for safer mobility and share it with their friends.”
Emphasizing their commitment to safety, TotalEnergies Foundation Senior Vice President, Civil Society Engagement Manoelle Lepoutre says “At TotalEnergies, safety is more than just a priority. It’s a value. Through the TotalEnergies Foundation global program of citizenship initiatives, TotalEnergies is pleased to support this innovative campaign being run by and for young people alongside socially engaged African artists.”
On the project, Elna2Ash said: “Road safety is a very personal subject for me because I lost a close friend to a road accident. My works are exhibited in a service station in Cairo to encourage young Egyptians to slow down.”
On his artistic intervention, Robert Ssempijja said: “My choreographies will be a great way to send a message to young Ugandans about wearing a helmet.”
On the impact of the project, Zeinixx said: “The good thing about a traveling exhibition is that it lets you reach out to different people and raise their awareness about speeding.”
