Enabling Safe Mobility

In a world where more than 1.19 million people die every year due to road crashes, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), addressing road safety has become an urgent global imperative. Road crashes, not accidents — because crashes are preventable and not mere chance events — have devastating consequences, not only in human lives but also in health systems, economies, and the future resilience of nations. The recently concluded 3rd International Transport Conference, held from 11–13 April 2025 at Hotel Yak and Yeti in Kathmandu, marked a significant step towards rethinking mobility under the theme “Towards Safe, Sustainable, Efficient, and Resilient Mobility.”
