Vol. 8: Traffic safety on low- and middle-income countries

According to the latest WHO's global status report on road safety (2023), the vast majority of traffic deaths, 92%, occur in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). While much knowledge on how to prevent traffic fatalities and injuries is available, it often comes from the high-income countries. The general lack of quality research based on the LMIC-context, and particularly performed by the researchers with local knowledge and understanding, is a serious hinder in addressing the global traffic safety challenge.

This special volume aims to contribute to filling in this gap.
