Mike Bloomberg and World Bank President Jim Yong Kim participate in a panel discussion on “Shaping the Future of Urban Transport” at the 10th Annual Transforming Transportation Conference. The conference was held at the World Bank Campus in Washington, DC.
At the conference, a midway status report was released on Bloomberg Philanthropies groundbreaking Global Road Safety Program. The report demonstrated that the programs work has resulted in 1.6 billion people who are now covered by new or improved road safety laws.
Bloomberg Philanthropies works primarily to advance five areas globally: the Arts, Education, the Environment, Government Innovation and Public Health.
