Statement at the UNGA High-Level Meeting on Road Safety

20 July 2026

DMUN Foundation

Mr. Joshua Shin delivered a statement on behalf of the DMUN Foundation at the High-level Meeting on Improving Road Safety.

The High-level Meeting reviewed progress on improving global road safety, a leading cause of death for children and young adults worldwide. The Foundation's statement pressed for youth participation in national road-safety strategies and for safe, affordable mobility to be treated as a development priority.

Advocacy of this kind sits at the centre of the Foundation's mandate: bringing the lived experience of children and young people into the rooms where decisions about them are made. Statements are delivered by young representatives themselves, most of them under twenty-five.

The full texts of related statements, submissions and reports are available in the documents library on the Publications page, where they can be filtered by category and year.

This article is part of the Foundation’s public record of its engagements and programmes.
