What Our Alumni Say about GRSLC
After attending the Global Road Safety Leadership Course, I realized road safety is not only about laws, but about so much more, including infrastructure, post-trauma care, data, road safety management. There are so many aspects to road safety. And experience in the course allowed me to interact with colleagues from all around the world.
