NO This policy brief highlights the critical risks faced by children in Brazil’s road transport system, where 1,654 children aged zero to 14 were killed in road crashes in 2014 and approximately 14,000 children were hospitalised each year. It examines how these outcomes reflect broader challenges in accessing safe mobility, particularly in relation to journeys to school. The document outlines interventions aimed at improving child safety and active transport conditions, including street audits, urban redesign, development of active mobility plans, and community engagement. It frames these measures within a wider effort to improve urban safety, reduce road trauma, and support safer, more inclusive environments for children’s daily mobility.
