Streets for life.

Safe and healthy streets for people and planet.

Road traffic crashes take the lives of 1.2 million people each year.

Lives like Kenyan marathon runner Kelvin Kiptum, who should be at this year’s Paris Olympics, but tragically died in a car crash alongside his coach.

Around the world, demands are rising for governments to tackle dangerous roads - the leading killer of young people - and deliver streets for life.

The solutions to transform our streets are proven, cost-effective, and universal. Safe roads are equitable, encourage walking, cycling (and running), protect from air pollution, and help to combat the climate crisis.

Streets for Health. Streets For Climate. Streets For All.

Streets for Life.

Our 2030 Manifesto
We will campaign in support of the SDG agenda to transform our streets:
Every child and adolescent can expect a safe and healthy journey to school.
Streets where children mix with traffic have a default speed limit of no more than 30km/h.
Every urban street has a viable footpath and protected at-grade crossings.
Every city has set an ambitious target for protected cycle lanes.
A global adolescent summit to prioritise sdg action on adolescent health and rights.

Streets for Life

700 children die every day on the world’s roads and it is the poorest families who suffer the most.

In four steps we can transform our streets, reduce injuries, tackle car dependency, combat climate change, challenge poverty, racism and social exclusion.

  1. 30km/h speed limit where people walk, live and play.
  2. Safe footpaths on every urban street.
  3. Protected crossings.
  4. Protected cycle lanes in every city.
