We open the FIM Sustainability Week by unveiling the FIM Sustainability Report, and outlining the initiatives undertaken by the FIM to meet the objectives set forth in the 2021 to 2025 ‘The Future in Pole Position’ sustainability strategy.

Download the FIM Sustainability Report 2024

For over thirty years, the FIM has aimed to make motorcycle sport more sustainable. This Sustainability Report helps evaluate its current status and to determine the necessary future actions.

While sustainability is often linked with environmental and climate issues, the FIM adopts a practical approach. We assess how these issues affect our community and look for viable solutions, showing our dedication to tackling these challenges.

This year’s report is structured differently, divided into five main sections: Introduction, Environment, Social, Ecosystem, and Next Steps.

The FIM Sustainability Report details a variety of initiatives. These include efforts from all FIM areas, particularly the International Sustainability Commission (CID), which oversees environmental best practices. The FIM Academy focuses on education and training and is also featured prominently. Additionally, the report includes the work of the International Technical Commission (CTI) in areas such as sound reduction and new fuels. It also covers the Commission for Electric Bikes (CEB) and the activities of the Women Commission (CFM). This year’s report highlights notable milestones such as the 120th anniversary activities, including the inauguration of the new HQ building and hospitality facilities, contributing to our overall results.

This year, the International Medical Commission (CMI) was also included as a part of the social responsibility jointly with the International Foundation for Motorcycling.

Jorge Viegas, FIM President, stated: “Our organisation, and motorcycling more broadly, has the opportunity to play a meaningful role in advancing sustainable development worldwide. As a sport, we are uniquely positioned to influence society through innovations driven by our International Technical Commission, alongside the contributions of our partners, manufacturers and the teams competing in our events. The United Nations Environment Programme has identified motorcycling as a key enabler of transitioning to more sustainable transport systems, particularly in developing countries.

Francoise Emery, FIM CEO added: “The FIM continues to demonstrate itself as a leader in using its position as a world governing body of sport to promote and champion sustainability, but most importantly by taking measurable actions that are now included widely across our events programme, the FIM is making a real difference in this pursuit. The entire FIM family, including national federations, continental unions, championship promoters, event organisers and other key stakeholders is strongly involved in this work and all together we reinforce our commitment to this important topic that effects every single person living on our planet.”
