Road Safety in Belarus

EASST partners in Azerbaijan, Belarus and Moldova pilot Disability Awareness Training with public transport managers and drivers.

The Belarusian Auto Moto Touring Club have been working to raise awareness of the importance of night-time visibility for pedestrian safety among children and young people.

Last year we received charitable funding from FedEx Express, a subsidiary of FedEx Corp. (NYSE: FDX), to deliver three diverse initiatives via our NGO partners in Ukraine, Belarus and Azerbaijan.

With the support of a grant by FedEx Express Europe, we have been working with the Belarusian Auto Moto Touring Club and local disability groups to turn old high visibility PPE into ‘mascots’ or tags for school book bags and children’s coats to promote visibility and safety on the roads.

Our ground-breaking project on disability and road safety in Belarus wins 2019 Prince Michael International Road Safety Award.

EASST partners the Belarusian Auto Moto Touring Club take their model of inclusive road safety education to the city of Luban.

A charitable grant, awarded by the express transportation company under its social responsibility platform, FedEx Cares, will enable EASST partners to deliver three separate initiatives, each with a focus on improving children’s road safety in countries where young people face significant daily risk.

The BKA’s latest project aims to ensure that road safety information is widely available and accessible to anyone who might need it.
