COVID-19: Update from IRF Global
Dear IRF Members, Business Partners, Colleagues and Friends,
The health and safety of everyone is our highest priority. Given the unprecedented circumstances, I wanted to reassure you that we are taking the necessary measures to adapt our program and continue delivering value to our members and the wider road community.
As a first step, we have rescheduled all IRF Global events planned for March, April and May (see updated calendar here). And in the coming weeks, we will also be launching new remote knowledge learning tools, aimed to assist those who work in the road & transport industry at a time when many are unable to travel.
In the interim, our extensive library of on-demand webinars is available at no charge to IRF Members in good standing at https://www.irf.global/webinars-on-demand/. Login credentials are needed to access the IRF Global Library. To request your login credentials, or if you are a non-member wishing to access the library, please contact Magid Elabyad at melabyad@IRF.global.
Looking beyond the current circumstances, IRF Global remains fully committed to its role as the world’s leading advocate for the road sector. Our sector is the backbone of world economies, and we will continue working with our members and partners to ensure governments around the world are making the needed investments in road and transport infrastructure that stimulate the economy, save lives, and enhance connectivity.
Better Roads. Better World.
Patrick Sankey
President & CEO
