Prince Michael heads to the Big Apple

HRH Prince Michael of Kent will present his inaugural Decade of Action Award at the first annual ‘Decade of Action for Road Safety Policy & Donor Forum’ on 2 May in New York.

The Forum, organised by the Commission for Global Road Safety in partnership with the Road Safety Fund, will address the role of road safety and sustainable transportation in contributing to shared goals for sustainable development, particularly in the context of the forthcoming ‘Rio+20’ UN Conference on Sustainable Development.

A highlight of the event will be a luncheon for the Prince Michael International Road Safety Awards in the presence of HRH Prince Michael of Kent, who will announce the first recipient of his prestigious annual Decade of Action Award.

The award recognises achievements in direct support of the objectives of the Global Plan for the Decade of Action for Road Safety, and for outstanding achievement in the field of global road traffic injury prevention.
