What is the OISEVI? The Iberoamerican Road Safety Observatory OISEVI is an international cooperation instrument bringing together the highest road safety authorities of 21 Ibero-American member countries. Brief History of OISEVI IRTAD twinning arrangement between Argentina and Spain (financed by the World Bank). It allows Argentina to: Improve its national crash data system Access technical information and research methodologies Knowledge sharing with international experts Maximize resources, learning of other countries successful experience The successful twinning led to the desire of a broader cooperation regarding road safety in Ibero-America. Requests from several countries for similar arrangements. Heads of Road Safety and Traffic Agencies from 18 countries agreed in 2011 to create the Ibero-American Road Safety Observatory. Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, Bolivia, Peru, Chile, Spain, Brazil, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Honduras, Costa Rica, Colombia, Dominican Republic, Mexico, Guatemala, Cuba, Ecuador. 2
OISEVIs Key Institutional Agreements Background of IRTAD-LAC XVIII Ibero-American Meeting of Heads of State held in San Salvador in October 2008. Member states agreed the creation of a Latin American Road Safety Observatory. Since 2009, in the ibero-american meetings of Traffic and Road Safety, the establishment of the Ibero-American Road Safety Observatory has been promoted. A Memorandum of Understanding was signed at the OECD Headquarters in Paris in November 2011, to formalize the agreement and establish a regional road safety database, based on IRTAD model. In the Ibero-American Meeting of Heads of Road Safety, held in Argentina in March 2012, the Statute and the structure of the Observatory was defined. Every year, the heads of road safety from 21 countries meet to discuss common issues and major strategies to face to reduce accidents in the region. 3
