The training was eye-opening, focusing on the human side of road safety: how our attitudes, behaviors, and daily choices shape safer journeys. What I valued most was the Safe System approach, showing that safer roads depend on everyone—from drivers and trainers to policymakers and enforcement. I left with practical tools and a renewed sense of purpose, confident this experience will help strengthen road safety education and foster a culture of safe, responsible road use in Zambia.

The Safe System course is very insightful and provided much needed thinking for a meaningful adoption for the Indian sub-continent. The contents of the course provided deeper details about the Swedish experience towards Vision Zero and handling all types of road users. The course will be immensely beneficial to the practitioners and researchers as well.
