Next month, the Global Alliance for Road Safety NGOs will hold its 6th meeting in Crete, Greece. YOURS is one of the founder members of the Alliance and has been involved in the meetings since the beginning. The meeting takes place in the city of Chania and will bring together NGOs from all across the world as well as road safety experts.
Prior to the High-Level Symposium, a number of pre-events and workshops are taking place. We will be running a workshop on 'Youth and Road Safety' - an insight into evidence-based practices in meaningful youth participation with young people. Our session will also focus on the forthcoming 2nd World Youth Assembly for Road Safety that YOURS is planning prior to the 3rd Ministerial Conference on Road Safety in Sweden (February, 2020).
