At the Ministerial Conference, NGOs brought helmets from local shops to demonstrate to decision-makers what riders are actually using. They came straight from the streets. We selected some of them for independent lab testing with support from @FIAFdn. Lab results are on their way

Excellent!
🚶‍♀️ In Addis Ababa, 54% of trips are made on foot, yet 95% of roads lack adequate pedestrian infrastructure. An ambitious corridor development project is changing this with 40km of improved streetscapes. See how they're transforming urban #mobility: bit.ly/4j3q7BQ

As an integral part of the multimodal transport system, walking and cycling can boost mobility sustainability. 30km/h reduces risks in areas with high human and vehicle interaction @TotalEnergies @roadsafetyngos @vinchenzowan @KeNHAKenya @TotalEnergies_F @ntsa_kenya @KURAroads

97% of child road deaths occur in developing countries. Together, we can prevent these deaths.

Worldwide we are likely to exceed 30 million road deaths in the 1st quarter of the twenty first century. Today is World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims. A day to recall those lost, the grief caused to so many families, & the need to act to save lives. #WDoR2024.
