हमारी दृष्टि एक ऐसी दुनिया है जहां बच्चे स्कूल और स्कूल से सुरक्षित यात्रा करते हैं

हम सभी अपने बच्चों के लिए सर्वश्रेष्ठ चाहते हैं ...

दुनिया भर में प्रतिदिन 500 बच्चे दुर्घटनाग्रस्त होने वाले दुर्घटनाओं में मारे जाते हैं। कभी-कभी वे स्कूल के प्रवेश द्वार से सिर्फ गज की दूरी पर मारे जाते हैं।

प्रत्येक यातायात मृत्यु और चोट एक बच्चे के शिक्षा के अधिकार का उल्लंघन करती है।

स्कूलों के लिए स्टार रेटिंग (SR4S) एक साक्ष्य-आधारित उपकरण है मापने, प्रबंधन और संचार जोखिम वाले बच्चे स्कूल की यात्रा पर निकलते हैं। यह त्वरित हस्तक्षेप का समर्थन करता है जो जीवन को बचाता है और पहले दिन से गंभीर चोटों को रोकता है।

संयुक्त राष्ट्र ने अपने सतत विकास लक्ष्य (एसडीजी) 3.6 में सड़क सुरक्षा को शामिल किया है। SR4S बाल और किशोर पैदल यात्रियों के लिए इन वैश्विक लक्ष्यों को पूरा करने के लिए महत्वपूर्ण है।

SR4S को एक प्रतिष्ठित पुरस्कार दिया गया प्रिंस माइकल इंटरनेशनल रोड सेफ्टी अवार्ड दिसंबर 2018 में, जोखिम को कम करने और दुनिया भर के पैदल यात्रियों के जीवन को बचाने के लिए आवेदन की विशाल क्षमता को पहचानना।
