Driving Change: Advancing Road Safety Across Africa in alignment with the Marrakech Declaration 2025
The Marrakech Declaration 2025 urges governments to prioritise road safety and cross-sector collaboration to halve road deaths by 2030, addressing high fatalities in low and middle-income countries, especially sub-Saharan Africa. Transaid supports this through professional driver training in Ghana and Uganda, motorcycle safety in Kenya, and the Safe African Helmet Initiative across multiple nations. Strong political leadership, inter-ministerial cooperation, funding, and community engagement are key to long-term impact.
