European Road Safety Charter
Join the European Road Safety Charter
Every day in Belgium, road accidents change lives. As an organisation, whether a company, non-profit, or public authority, you can make a difference. By joining the European Road Safety Charter, you become part of a network of more than 4,000 European organisations actively working towards safer roads and safer mobility solutions. This is not only a strong statement of social responsibility, but also a way to strengthen your organisation.
Belgian companies and authorities share their expertise
Mobiel21, Euro NCAP, Parents of Road Victims, Fline, IMEC, XIU, Province of Antwerp, City of Leuven, Responsible Young Drivers Flanders…
These organisations have shared their projects within the network to inspire others. And in turn, they are inspired by the many initiatives featured in monthly newsletters and webinars.
Vias Institute as Belgian coordinator
The Charter is hosted by the European Commission.
Vias Institute, together with Ricardo plc (UK), manages the international coordination of the project as part of the ERSC project management team.
In Belgium, we act as the main contact point, connecting members and facilitating knowledge sharing within the network.
