What is a Safe Community?

• A Safe Community can be a Municipality, a
  County, or a City. They work with safety
  promotion, injury-, violence- and suicide-
  prevention as well as prevention of the
  consequences (human injuries) related to natural
  disaster. Their work covers all age groups,
  gender and areas and is a part of an
  international network of accredited programmes.
• The community makes application to the
  Karolinska Institutet or to the Certifying
  Centres and if accepted, an agreement is signed
  between the WHO Collaborating Centre on Community
  Safety Promotion at the K.I. and the community.

The Role of the WHO Collaborating Centre

• To coordinate a world-wide network of Safe
  Communities, Affiliate Safe Community Support
  Centres and Certifying Centres.
• To develop indicators for Safe Communities.
• To organise training courses, conferences and
  seminars in Safety Promotion.
