NATIONAL TRAFFIC SAFETY CONFERENCE

Period
1 April–30 September 2024

At SAFER, we've recognised a need to organise a national traffic safety conference in Sweden, aiming to unite stakeholders across sectors to reduce traffic accidents and promote safety. Given the absence of the previous Tylösand seminar in its networking format and the continued digital format of the Swedish Transport Administration's annual Result Conference post-pandemic, a unified gathering opportunity in Sweden is lacking. To initiate this objective and ensure a successful future conference, we will carry out a pre-study to develop the idea further.

The envisioned national conference in Sweden serves multiple pivotal purposes:

  • Knowledge Sharing: Facilitate the exchange of expertise and best practices among traffic safety stakeholders, including authorities, researchers, businesses, and NGOs.
  • Collaboration: Serve as a platform for coordinating efforts and strategies to enhance traffic safety and establish a secure traffic environment, especially vital as the entire transport system transitions toward sustainability.
  • Awareness and education: Elevate awareness about traffic safety issues and offer educational opportunities for professionals in the field.
  • Networking and relationship building: Create avenues for forging crucial relationships across various industries and organizations, fostering potential future projects and valuable collaborations.
  • Policy discussion: Provide a forum to discuss and shape traffic safety policies and legislation.
  • Innovation and technology: Promote dialogues around emerging technologies and innovations that can contribute to enhancing traffic safety.
