The new eSafety Support website

The eScope Observatory has been renamed eSafety Support and a new website was designed for that occasion. This new website incorporates all the information that have been collected in the last 4 years on the eSafety initiatives. The new structure allows for easy navigation with its six main menu points on the top:

The European Commission-funded eSafety Support project kicked off in January 2006. It will assist the eSafety initiative that was set up in support of the Commission White Paper "European Transport Policy for 2010: Time to Decide". One of the key objectives of this paper is to halve the number of road fatalities by 2010.

eSafety brings together the European Commission, industry, public authorities and other stakeholders with the aim of accelerating the development, deployment and use of Intelligent Integrated Safety Systems. The goal is to increase road safety and reduce the number of accidents on Europe's roads.

eSafety Support stimulates and monitors the activities, progress and results generated by the eSafety initiative by offering assistance to the eSafety Forum and its Working Groups and disseminating results to all stakeholders.
 
eSafety Support will communicate more broadly – informing the general public that eSafety can save their lives by decreasing the driver’s workload and provide him or her with the necessary support in hazardous situations.

A new website has been designed for the launch of eSafety Support, building on the work of the eScope project . The new structure allows for easy navigation within six main menus:

For the knowledgeable eSafety stakeholder the category “eSafety activities” will be most useful. Here one can find all information on the eSafety Forum, its Plenaries, Steering Group meetings and Working Groups, as well as information on eCall and eSafety reports and studies.

For the newcomers and interested audience outside the transport sector, we have created the “Learn about eSafety Systems” category, which gives an overview of existing eSafety applications and presents videos, images and brochures on the topic of eSafety.
