Eastern Partnership Road Safety Observatory

The Eastern Partnership Road Safety Observatory is a joint initiative of the five Eastern Partnership countries - Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Moldova, Ukraine - with the common goal of reducing road casualties by 50% by 2030.

Funded by the EU, the Observatory houses country-level data and acts as a catalyst to strengthen national road safety data collection, management and analysis. 

Our mission is to reduce road casualties through improving the quality of systematic and consolidated data collection on road traffic deaths and serious road injuries in line with best EU and international practices.
