We are in the middle of the FIM Sustainability Week and as last year the FIM present their latest FIM Sustainability Report, highlighting the steps the FIM has taken toward objectives identified in the 2021 to 2025 ‘The Future in Pole Position’ sustainability strategy.
Over the last three decades the FIM has been working to make motorcycle sport more sustainable and inclusive and this Sustainability Report is a vital tool in assessing its current position and identifying the next steps that need to be taken.
While sustainability is often associated with environmental and climate concerns, the FIM takes a ‘real-world’ perspective. We examine how our community is impacted by these issues and actively seek practical solutions, demonstrating our commitment to addressing the challenges we all face.
Today also showcases the work of the FIM Women's in Motorcycling Commission (CFM) which since its creation in 2006 has worked tirelessly to break down gender-based bias to make motorcycling completely inclusive.
The FIM Sustainability Report shines a spotlight on a range of initiatives. These include the work of the FIM International Sustainability Commission (CID), which monitors technological advancements and environmental best practices. The FIM Academy, a champion of education and training, also features prominently. Additionally, the report highlights our programme to promote sustainable development through motorcycle tourism, and the efforts of the Technical Commission in areas such as sound reduction and new fuels. Notably, the report also covers the commission of electric bikes, and our work in the fields of tourism and mobility.
This year also has been included the medical commission as a part of the social responsibility jointly with the International Foundation for motorcycle.
Jorge Viegas, FIM President stated: “We are proud to present the 2023 FIM sustainability report. This report includes many efforts that I am delighted to share. However, the message remains clear: we must continue to prioritise sustainability in the FIM and all the organisations within our sector ecosystem. This takes work, perseverance, plus sometimes bravery and compromise, and not forgetting passion - all qualities that we pride ourselves on in our global sporting motorcycle family.”
