Project

Full title: Advancing Road Safety through Twinning 

The TWINSAFE project aims to enhance road safety research capabilities at the University of Zagreb, Faculty of Transport and Traffic Sciences (FTTS) by fostering collaboration with two leading European institutions - Lund University (LU), and Hasselt University (HU). TWINSAFE will facilitate cross-pollination of knowledge and promote best practices to enhance scholarly inquiry and innovation in the road safety domain. The project encompasses a joint research initiative delving into the relationship between infrastructure characteristics and driver behaviour, targeted capacity building of FTTS as a centre of excellence, and programs to spur internationalization, diversity, and entrepreneurial thinking. Through its multidimensional approach, TWINSAFE will cultivate an ecosystem uniting academia, industry, and government to pioneer data-driven solutions for a key societal challenge – improving road safety.
