Today marks the start of #InternationalWalkToSchoolMonth. In Zimbabwe and Tanzania, over 90% of children walk to school. Their journey is often short — but far from safe. 🚸 Their feet share the road with speeding vehicles on roads built for speed, not for protection.🚸

Active mobility (incl. walking to school) has many advantages for children and communities. But without #saferoads, those advantages come with risk. #WalkToSchoolMonth pic source: World Bank

During #InternationalWalkToSchoolMonth we must reflect on the many hundreds of children injured & killed on the roads. Accurate statistics are a crucial component for road safety policy, but can be hard to obtain. "If you can't measure it, you can't improve it" - Peter Drucker
