Don't wait for accidents to happen

About ICTCT

Mission statement

International Cooperation on Theories and Concepts in Traffic safety (ICTCT) is an international association aiming since 1988 at building up and sharing scientific knowledge on road safety, with a particular interest for methods that do not only rely on crash data but also on non-crash events. It does so by organizing conferences, courses and opportunities for knowledge transfer, all directed to a worldwide professional audience. ICTCT approaches safety as an integral part of the wider road traffic system, envisaging all transport modes with a specific emphasis on vulnerable road users.

What makes ICTCT different?

ICTCT has a clear focus on proactive approach to traffic safety. This means that accidents should be prevented, not ‘collected’. Moreover, the association is very interdisciplinary. It welcomes researchers from different fields—transportation, mobility management, sustainability, engineering, psychology, public health, political sciences—to work together addressing the issues of traffic safety.

Another important aspect is the informal atmosphere within the ICTCT. With its moderate size, it is still possible to know everyone and develop not only professional, but personal relations. As a result, many projects and long-term collaborations initiated from informal talks during coffee breaks or other side activities taking place at each of the conferences.

The senior cohort of ICTCT-members are well known and respected researchers and experts. And yet it is easy to approach them asking for an opinion or an advice. In fact, early career researchers are encouraged to make their work-in-progress presentations at ICTCT. They receive supportive and friendly feedback, though objective and contributing, too. More mature works can always be further submitted to special issues organized regularly in cooperation with renowned journals.

Even between the conferences, the ICTCT network is very responsive. You can send an announcement, requesting for help, advice or just specific information and the responses usually come within hours.
