  12. According to the estimate of the World Health Organization’s Global Burden of Disease Study, unintentional injuries resulted in more than 3.9 million deaths in 2004. Among the 15 - 29 years old of age group, roadtraffic injuries, drownings, burns, poisonings, falls and other unintentional injuries accounted for top five of the 15 leading causes of death

  13. DO SOMETHING !!!!!!!! TOP DOWN THE WHO MUST ALERT THE MEMBER STATES! BOTTOM UP THE SAFE COMMUNITY MOVEMENT!

  14. The co-operation between WHO and the Safe Community Movement started in 1986 and began its formal existence at the First World Conference on Accident and Injury Prevention held in Stockholm, Sweden in September 1989.

  15. In the Manifesto for Safe Communities, the resolution of the conference 1989 stated that the International Safe Community movement should work with “WHO Health for all” as a vision.

  16. The ground pillars in the Stockholm manifesto are:•All human beings have an equal right to health and safety•Accident and injury prevention requires coordinated action by many groups

  17. •Health sector have a crucial role in collecting information on injured people, injury patterns, causes of injuries and hazard situations•Local programs must include all citizens and focus on the most vulnerable

  18. •Evaluation both of the process and outcome of a safety promotion program is important•An international development work for safe communities is necessary!

  19. In an International Safe Community, the community itself plays the leading role. The term Safe Community implies that the community work for increased safety in a structured approach, not that the community is already perfectly safe.

  20. Creative methods of education, physical planning and environmental change joined with appropriate regulations and enforcement are an important beginning for the safety of a community.

  21. An International Safe Community use the traditional means of control such such as economic, regulations and governing by objectives and visions. No single approach is sufficient for changing existing behaviour patterns. Heightening of public awareness is also very important.

  22. While the movement was growing started a quality management programme leading to a peer review system where the leading communities (now about 360) were labelled International Safe Communities.
