AIP Foundation Vietnam

AIP Vietnam was established in 1999 as the founding office of AIP Foundation, committed to preventing road crash injuries and fatalities through sustainable, evidence-based solutions. Recognizing the high risk faced by motorcyclists—who make up the majority of road users in Vietnam—AIP Vietnam pioneered helmet safety advocacy, leading to the passage of the country’s 2007 national helmet law. This policy shift has saved thousands of lives and serves as a model for other countries. Since then, AIP Vietnam has expanded its work beyond helmet safety to address a wide range of road safety challenges, including speeding, school zone safety, youth engagement, and occupational road safety for workers. By combining public awareness campaigns, private sector partnerships, and policy advocacy, AIP Vietnam works to create long-term, systemic change in the country’s road safety landscape. The organization delivers road safety education and high-quality helmets to school children, improving their protection and increasing public awareness. It collaborates with local governments, businesses, and community groups to strengthen policies and enhance traffic law enforcement. It improves school zone safety through infrastructure enhancements and speed management interventions, ensuring children can travel safely to and from school. It advocates for inclusive, sustainable mobility solutions that address the needs of vulnerable communities and empowers youth to become road safety leaders. Research, monitoring, and evaluation play a critical role in shaping these initiatives, providing evidence to drive program improvements and policy recommendations. With over two decades of impact, AIP Vietnam continues to work toward a future where mobility is safe, equitable, and sustainable for all. By addressing the root causes of road traffic injuries, it remains committed to saving lives and ensuring that road safety is recognized as a fundamental right.
