Southeast Asia is a region characterized by its diversity, particularly in terms of languages. This makes questions relating to local languages particularly acute, especially in terms of their place in education systems, whether as languages of instruction or as subjects. The stakes of these choices in terms of school language policies are indeed multiple and crucial : preservation of linguistic and cultural diversity ; access to education for ethnic minorities ; implications in terms of conception and adherence to national identities.

En birman, l’acronyme Ma Aye Lo est un jeu de mots construit sur les initiales du général putschiste Min Aung Hlain et l’expression issue d’argot « nique ta mère ».

Roundtable discussion / Debate

Road safety and sustainable urban transport in developing countries

In collaboration with the Embassy of France in Bangkok, IRASEC and the Office of the UN Secretary-General’s Special Envoy on Road Safety, ESCAP is hosting a side event during the 81st Commission Session on "Road Safety and Sustainable Urban Transport Development in Developing Countries." The event took place in-person at the United Nations Conference Centre and online on 22 April 2025.

As urbanization rapidly reshapes cities across Asia and the Pacific, road safety is essential for building resilient, sustainable, and inclusive urban transport systems. This side event will highlight the importance of integrating road safety into urban planning to promote multimodal transport solutions that reduce road traffic injuries and fatalities. It will also explore how road safety interventions, along with land-use planning and travel demand management, contribute to safer and more sustainable mobility for all. The session will showcase ongoing efforts in the region to optimize both motorized and non-motorized transport modes, reduce road exposure, and ensure equitable access to mobility, in alignment with the goals of the Decade of Action for Road Safety 2021-2030 and the Regional Plan of Action for Asia and the Pacific.
