Proactive Partnership Strategy - Global Road Safety Partnership

Partnership Building
Sitting under the section on Partnership Building there are four components:
1. Problem Recognition and Solution Seeking: This is where a person or
organization recognizes that a road safety problem exists in the community
and there is a link between road trauma, quality of life and human life itself.
There is a recognition that the problem comes from the community and the
solutions also lie within the people in the community.
2. Identifying Key Supporters: The PPS is based on community partnerships
and relies on these partnerships to build an advanced road safety culture
to reduce fatal and serious injuries. These partnerships are most effective
when there is cross representation from Government, Business and Civil
Society.
3. Partnership Agreement: The Mayor and key partners (Transport, Health,
Education) make a public declaration to implement the Proactive
Partnership Strategy, establishing reliable evidence in relation to fatal and
serious road crashes in the community, The reliability is achieved through
collection of data on a 30 days basis. All commit to move towards an
advanced road safety culture by significantly reducing the fatal and serious
injury crashes, whilst concurrently improving the quality of life, in general
and human life in particular.
4. Establishing a PPS team: The key partners in the PPS notionally bring together
people and organizations that can support and implement Programmes,
Projects and Systems even when reliable data is not always available at the
time.
