“Working to minimize road trauma”

List of ICART Members
We look forward to the list of Members of the International Coalition Against Road Trauma - ICART - growing with every year!
Estrada Viva – Coalition Against Road Trauma, Portugal

ICART is a network of global organisations and national Coalitions Against Road Trauma (ICART) – therefore a network of organisations all working to highlight, address and reduce road trauma.

“Working to minimize road trauma”

This network originated with the setting up of Estrada Viva – Coalition Against Road Trauma by ACA-M in Portugal in 2005, subscribed to by associations representing health professionals, emergency services, road safety experts, relevant charities and civil rights organisations, as well as committed individuals.

The general idea is that anyone subscribing to the coalition can do whatever they feel is needed to promote its principles of minimizing road trauma.

The main role and strength of such a coalition is that organisations, institutions and individuals working towards the same goals can feel united and can demonstrate their commitment to working towards minimizing road trauma - simply by adding their name to a Coalition Against Road Trauma in their country, and through that to ICART.

The World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims offers existing and potential signatories an opportunity to point to the consequences of crashes and their severe impact, therefore ICART is suggested as a global World Day initiative, with membership of global organisations and institutions and National Coalitions Against Road Trauma, which all countries are invited to set up.

 

Suggested invitation to potential Coalition members

 


Invitation to add your name/your organisation’s name to a Coalition Against Road Trauma in (……….your country), and become part of a wider network – the International Coalition Against Road Trauma – ICART.

This Coalition is to be an informal network of organizations, institutions and personalities who already all work to highlight, address and reduce road trauma, but who through joining such a network can feel united with others in their work towards the same goals and in demonstrating their commitment by signing up to the Coalition.

The international network – ICART – has been suggested as a global initiative for the World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims. This Day, which is observed on the 3rd Sunday of November each year and was adopted by the United Nations in 2005, offers an opportunity to all organizations working in the field of road trauma reduction to publicise the messages relating to their specific work, in addition to messages relating to the scale and impact of crashes and the urgent need for their reduction, as well as to join in the observance of the day.
