Impulsando el compromiso con la seguridad vial a través de la Carta Europea

On May 20, 2026, FESVIAL, as ERSC ambassador for Spain, hosted the European Road Safety Charter (ERSC) event at the European Commission Representation in Madrid. 

The conference was thought as a meeting point for Spanish members of the ERSC and other organisations also involved in road safety, providing a space to share experiences and knowledge, and also for discovering innovative initiatives, as finalists and winners of the European Road Safety Excellence Awards presented their projects.

 

Volunteer Initiative Promoting Road Safety During Easter Travel

The volunteer team of EFTHIT.A. Rhodes - Road Safety Observatory, continuing its annual Easter initiative, prepared handmade Easter candles and distributed them free of charge to drivers on Holy Thursday in Rhodes. 

Through this symbolic action, we shared an important message: “Happy Easter to all. Drive responsibly, respect human life, and let us all work together for safe journeys with zero fatal road crashes.”

Along with the candles, we distributed:

• a leaflet with tips for safe travel

• an information leaflet on the new Road Traffic Code

The main challenge addressed by this practice is the traditional barrier to entry for deep-tech innovation: the need for large, specialized, and expensive development teams. This often slows down a project's ability to adapt and innovate, especially for mission-driven initiatives with limited initial resources.

The primary challenge we address is not a single road safety issue, but the systemic limitation of a reactive mindset. Current technology platforms often create data monopolies, lack interoperability, and are driven by profit motives rather than public interest. This creates a barrier to building a truly integrated, trustworthy, and proactive safety ecosystem that public authorities can rely on and help shape.

The first major challenge was to make this pastoral action known within the Church's own structure in Ourense. The CEE's Road Pastoral Department was created in Spain more than 50 years ago, but in many dioceses, no initiatives are carried out and priests are unaware of it. The surprising thing was that families, communities, and neighbors, as soon as we began working on these initiatives, began to follow us, asking for more action, and feeling supported in the loneliness caused by the loss of a loved one, a friend, a neighbor, or a car accident. Every year, the number of people participating in the scheduled sessions increases.
