Event Details

30 June- 1 July 2022 in New York City, US

The UN General Assembly will hold a high‑level meeting on improving global road safety in July 2022, as mandated in A/RES/75/308 adopted in July 2021.

The 2030 Agenda contains two targets specifically addressing road safety: SDG target 3.6, to halve the number of global deaths and injuries from road traffic crashes (on which the UNGA passed a resolution in August 2020); and SDG target 11.2, to improve road safety in the provision of access to transport systems and expanding public transport.

The theme of the high-level meeting will be ‘The 2030 horizon for road safety:  securing a decade of action and delivery,’ and it is expected to result in a political decision. The high-level meeting aims to:

  • address gaps and challenges,
  • mobilize political leadership,
  • promote multi-sectoral and multi-stakeholder collaboration, and
  • assess the progress made in attaining the objectives of the road safety-related SDG targets.
