Background
The ambassadors are men or woman who practice motorcycling in any sports discipline and who are close to and identified with humanitarian or social responsible causes, wishing to contribute with his or her image and prestige through messages and other actions to sensitise the sport and non-sport motorcycling community worldwide.
The ambassadors lend their voices and will use their talents and fame to transmit environmental messages previously agreed between the communications and sustainability experts of the governing body. The primary purpose is to educate and create awareness about environmental issues.
One of the main messages is to spread the best environmental practices described in the Environmental Code, promote the Motorcycling Sustainability Week, participate in special activities for relevant celebrations and join in the promotional video clips created to raise awareness amongst the community.
