The Asia Injury Prevention Foundation: Safe roads for life
Across the Asia Injury Prevention Foundation program countries, it continues to work tirelessly everyday to ensure the safety of children and youth on the road.
This month, it has been working closely with its Safety Delivered youth road safety ambassadors in Cambodia to issue a joint statement to the government calling for action on distracted driving. In Vietnam, this Safety Delivered program has expanded to four new schools, increasing its reach by an estimated 68,000 students.
And program implementation has begun in Myanmar, where 3,000 students will receive road safety education and quality helmets through our Safety Delivered program.
Engaging local stakeholders also remains a key component of the programming, with over 600 parents participating in our Street Wise trainings in Thailand and 19 teachers empowered to carry out road safety educational programming in their classrooms thanks to our Walk Wise workshop in China.
The AIP Foundation won a Prince Michael International Road Safety Award in 2006.
