Resumen
Descripción
This report provides an overview of the
challenges and opportunities in addressing road safety in
the Europe and Central Asia (ECA) region. It presents
information on the size, characteristics, and causes of the
problem; presents evidence on the effectiveness of measures
that countries world-wide have adopted to improve road
safety; briefly describes current international road safety
policy; and discusses a range of strategies and actions that
could be undertaken by the World Bank in coordination and
partnership with the World Health Organization (WHO),
multilateral development banks, other international agencies
and donors, as well as with private and civil society
institutions. A primary audience of this report is
internal-particularly managers and staff of the World Bank
working in the transport, health, education, and governance
sectors, to raise awareness about the multisectoral nature
of the road safety challenge and of effective options to
address it. It proposes ways that the World Bank might
engage more to support ECA countries in tackling this issue,
working in partnership with other international agencies and
donors. The secondary audience is external policymakers,
senior analysts, program managers, and their advisers in the
governments of ECA countries, private sector officials, and
civil society and international organizations working in
this field. The goal is to support discussion on appropriate
choices and instruments for advancing the road safety agenda
as a top development priority over the short and medium term.
