The grant, which will be made over a period of five years starting in January 2010, is the largest single donation ever for international road safety. Road traffic accidents kill 1.2 million people and injure up to 50 million each year, according to the World Health Organisation. With more cars on the worlds roads each year, particularly in the fast growing economies of India, China and Latin America, the situation is rapidly getting worse; road traffic injuries are projected to be the fifth leading cause of death globally by 2030. Bloombergs global road safety initiative is a five-year programme focusing on ten countries that have a high burden of road traffic injuries and fatalities. Nearly half of worldwide traffic deaths occur within these ten countries, which include Mexico, Turkey and India – home to three of EMBARQs largest regional centres for sustainable transport. The Bloomberg grant will enable them to take their work on urban mobility to a far larger scale in these areas. EMBARQs programmes will focus on incorporating sustainable transport and reduced emissions in urban planning. Helmets and seatbelts are very important, but you also have to think about policies that protect all urban residents, not just transport users,” said Nancy Kete, Director of EMBARQ, Were tackling the problem at the root by considering all of the health and safety benefits associated with mass transit, cycling, walking, clean fuels and vehicles, and vibrant public spaces. These solutions not only provide safer streets, but they also lead to cleaner air, reduced carbon emissions, more physically active citizens, and greater social inclusion.” Shell Foundation co-founded EMBARQ with the World Resources Institute in 2002 to tackle issues of congestion and pollution afflicting the urban poor in developing world mega-cities. This is a great marker for the progress we have made in the last seven years.” says Judith Pollock, Business Director of Sustainable Transport, We have been working to develop a sustainable way for EMBARQ to bring their world-class knowledge of urban mobility solutions to the over-populated cities in most need of help and then to expand their influence in those countries. Bloombergs confidence in our work is a huge step forward.

These solutions not only provide safer streets, but they also lead to cleaner air, reduced carbon emissions, more physically active citizens, and greater social inclusion.” Shell Foundation co-founded EMBARQ with the World Resources Institute in 2002 to tackle issues of congestion and pollution afflicting the urban poor in developing world mega-cities. This is a great marker for the progress we have made in the last seven years.” says Judith Pollock, Business Director of Sustainable Transport, We have been working to develop a sustainable way for EMBARQ to bring their world-class knowledge of urban mobility solutions to the over-populated cities in most need of help and then to expand their influence in those countries. Bloombergs confidence in our work is a huge step forward. With support from the Shell Foundation, the Caterpillar Foundation, and now Bloomberg Philanthropies, EMBARQ are well placed to deliver the scale-up strategy that will see them extend their influence in Turkey, South East Asia and China over the next 10 years.” Other organisations involved in the Bloomberg initiative include the World Health Organisation, Johns Hopkins, Bloomberg School of Public Health, the World Bank Global Road Safety Facility, Global Road Safety Partnership and the Association for Safe International Road Travel.The grant, which will be made over a period of five years starting in January 2010, is the largest single donation ever for international road safety. Road traffic accidents kill 1.2 million people and injure up to 50 million each year, according to the World Health Organisation. With more cars on the worlds roads each year, particularly in the fast growing economies of India, China and Latin America, the situation is rapidly getting worse; road traffic injuries are projected to be the fifth leading cause of death globally by 2030. Bloombergs global road safety initiative is a five-year programme focusing on ten countries that have a high burden of road traffic injuries and fatalities. Nearly half of worldwide traffic deaths occur within these ten countries, which include Mexico, Turkey and India – home to three of EMBARQs largest regional centres for sustainable transport. The Bloomberg grant will enable them to take their work on urban mobility to a far larger scale in these areas.

Road traffic accidents kill 1.2 million people and injure up to 50 million each year, according to the World Health Organisation. With more cars on the worlds roads each year, particularly in the fast growing economies of India, China and Latin America, the situation is rapidly getting worse; road traffic injuries are projected to be the fifth leading cause of death globally by 2030. Bloombergs global road safety initiative is a five-year programme focusing on ten countries that have a high burden of road traffic injuries and fatalities. Nearly half of worldwide traffic deaths occur within these ten countries, which include Mexico, Turkey and India – home to three of EMBARQs largest regional centres for sustainable transport. The Bloomberg grant will enable them to take their work on urban mobility to a far larger scale in these areas. EMBARQs programmes will focus on incorporating sustainable transport and reduced emissions in urban planning.

EMBARQ share US$125 million award from Bloomberg Philanthropies for Global Road Safety Work
Shell Foundation is delighted to announce that its strategic partner EMBARQ - the World Resources Institute’s Centre for Sustainable Transport - has been selected as one of six organisations awarded a total of US$125 million by Michael Bloomberg to increase health and road safety in low and middle income countries.
The grant, which will be made over a period of five years starting in January 2010, is the largest single donation ever for international road safety. Road traffic accidents kill 1.2 million people and injure up to 50 million each year, according to the World Health Organisation. With more cars on the world’s roads each year, particularly in the fast growing economies of India, China and Latin America, the situation is rapidly getting worse; road traffic injuries are projected to be the fifth leading cause of death globally by 2030. Bloomberg’s global road safety initiative is a five-year programme focusing on ten countries that have a high burden of road traffic injuries and fatalities. Nearly half of worldwide traffic deaths occur within these ten countries, which include Mexico, Turkey and India – home to three of EMBARQ’s largest regional centres for sustainable transport. The Bloomberg grant will enable them to take their work on urban mobility to a far larger scale in these areas. Shell Foundation co-founded EMBARQ with the World Resources Institute in 2002 to tackle issues of congestion and pollution afflicting the urban poor in developing world mega-cities. “This is a great marker for the progress we have made in the last seven years.” says Judith Pollock, Business Director of Sustainable Transport, “We have been working to develop a sustainable way for EMBARQ to bring their world-class knowledge of urban mobility solutions to the over-populated cities in most need of help and then to expand their influence in those countries.
