Mission & Goals

ETSC is the sole European NGO dedicated to improving the safety of all transport modes. It provides an impartial source of research-based advice on transport safety matters to the European Commission, the European Parliament, and to national governments and organisations concerned with transport safety throughout Europe. It seeks to identify, evaluate and promote effective measures on the basis of international research findings, good evidence and best practice, in areas which offer the greatest potential for a reduction in transport crashes and casualties. The positions of ETSC, its contribution to the international community of safety experts and its research-based policy-advice for European policy-makers are generated by the work of more than 200 experts.
