About

Since 2016, the Johns Hopkins International Injury Research Unit and Global Road Safety Partnership–with support from Bloomberg Philanthropies–have trained more than 600 road safety professionals from over 60 countries via a suite of Global Road Safety Leadership Course.

The Global Road Safety Leadership Course: Initiative Partners is a new iteration of the GRSLC, which directly engages staff of the Bloomberg Philanthropies Initiative for Global Road Safety. In the context of COVID-19, JH-IIRU, GRSP, Bloomberg Philanthropies and our partners wanted to develop an opportunity for engagement for new staff of the initiative, and to provide capacity building on evidence-based approaches to road safety.

The following courses are offered as part of the suite of Global Road Safety Leadership Courses:

Global Road Safety Leadership Course
Global Road Safety Leadership Course: Initiative Partners
Global Road Safety Leadership Course: Alumni Fellowship Program
Road Policing Executive Leadership Course

These courses aim at building leadership capacity to design, advocate for, and implement effective road safety programs and policies.

Key features of the program include:

Active engagement among a wide variety of international participants from different settings and backgrounds, including government and civil society
Delivery of the program through a diverse, experienced international faculty that aims to challenge and inspire participants
Thematic emphasis on leadership across a range of road safety issues, irrespective of participants’ positions in their organizations
