Towards Zero Deaths (TZD) Conference, 2015-2016

Principal Investigator(s):

Stephanie Malinoff, Director, Outreach Services, Center for Transportation Studies

Project summary:

The Toward Zero Deaths (TZD) conference brings together Minnesota's traffic safety stakeholders to provide the latest information on traffic safety initiatives and strategies, and to provide training on traffic safety topics. The Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) Office of Traffic, Safety, and Technology, in cooperation with the Minnesota Department of Public Safety Office of Traffic Safety, relies on CTS to plan and carry out the two-day TZD Conference.

CTS uses skills in conference planning, management, and outreach to deliver this workshop. CTS also coordinates program activities for the TZD effort, such as management of the leadership and program teams, delivery of the stakeholder breakfasts, and management of the working group. This program management work allows CTS to tie the ideas discussed at these meetings and activities into the conference planning process.
