UN Global World Safety Week

May 20, 2026 - May 26, 2026

Road signs for UN Global Road Safety Week

UN Global Road Safety Week is set to take place from May 15th to May 21st this year, dedicated to raising awareness and advocating for road safety on a global scale. Unlike fixed-date observances, UN Global Road Safety Week moves annually, falling on these dates to mobilise action and promote road safety initiatives worldwide.

This week-long campaign aims to highlight the urgent need for measures to prevent road traffic deaths and injuries, which remain a leading cause of mortality and disability worldwide. From promoting safe driving behaviours to advocating for improved infrastructure and enforcement, UN Global Road Safety Week serves as a rallying point for governments, organisations, and individuals to come together in pursuit of safer roads for all.

To engage your audience during UN Global Road Safety Week, here are some content ideas:

  • Share statistics and facts about road traffic accidents and their impact on communities worldwide
  • Highlight success stories and best practices in road safety initiatives from different regions or countries
  • Host live discussions or webinars featuring road safety experts, policymakers, and advocates
  • Share tips and resources for safe driving, pedestrian safety, and responsible road use
  • Encourage followers to participate in awareness campaigns, pledge to adopt safer behaviours, or volunteer with local road safety organisations
