The Alliance's Strategic Business Plan for 2010 to 2015 focuses on the six goals:
- To influence key decision makers and leaders at the European and national level to commit to address the magnitude of child injury and its prevention in an integrated and comprehensive approach with all relevant sectors.
- To support the development and monitoring of child injury action plans at the European and national level.
- To advocate for the adoption, implementation and enforcement of child injury evidence based good practices at the European and national level.
- To increase and strengthen the capacity of professionals in health and all relevant sectors to child injury prevention by enhancing awareness, knowledge and skills to address childhood injury.
- To influence the quality and quantity of data, research and evaluation undertaken related to child injury and its prevention.
- To maintain and enhance the European Child Safety Alliance to be an effective and efficient operation.
There are a number of national programmes dedicated to child injury prevention throughout Europe that are making steady progress to enhance children’s safety. However, Europe is becoming more of a global community, and this has an effect on injury hazards, injuries themselves and the efforts to reduce them at the European level. Even though the burden of injuries has a different profile in each Member State and is influenced by various social, economic, political and cultural factors, united efforts around a common goal to reduce childhood injury throughout Europe are essential to be successful.
