The major strategic intent of EuroSafe is to create a sustainable and trust working network of experts and expert organizations and to increase co-ordination in the injury field at European level. Though its programmes EuroSafe proves its function as:
- a professional organization with a mission;
- a knowledge shop (injury data, good practices, network information);
- a strong communicator and initiator of actions;
- a bridge between policy makers and practitioners (research/intervention); and
- a forum for different professionals and disciplines to meet and share knowledge to develop effective action plans
It is envisaged to have the EuroSafe organisation developing into a genuine collaborative network of dedicated institutes in Europe (Centres of Excellence), all bringing into the organisation their specific networks, competencies, dedicated resources and leadership with regard to one of the priority topics for EuroSafe actions.
These Centres of Excellence (CoE) have responsibilities for one of the EuroSafe programmes, based on an agreed business plan and a (three years) financial plan that includes own resources on behalf of the respective Centre.
Each of the CoE’s have their own dedicated network of partners and country representatives in view ensuring a European wide spread of both input to the programme and outreach in the field. Most programmes rely on multi source financing, being own resources, EC-project funding, own contributions from partners and/ or commercial sponsors.
