Although road trauma has been acknowledged as a humanitarian issue since the late 1990s, it has struggled to be recognised as a global priority. One of the first global-level reports to give attention to the issue was the International Federation of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies' (IFRC) World Disaster Report 1998. While this contributed to the establishment of the Global Road Safety Partnership (GRSP), it did not lead to a global level response. A major step forward occurred in 2011 when the United Nations established the Decade of Action for Road Safety (2011-2020).
