Sustainability

Kattia Juárez, FIM CID Director

The end of the season is here, and with it comes the celebrations.
Recognise the champions who, throughout the year, made an effort and raised all the values of the sport. It is also time to concretise our activities and meet with the delegates of 116 national federations.
Organising an event of such magnitude is not easy; we recognise the negative impacts, but we are also aware of the positive legacy to the region. This year we have joined forces with the departments and organisations involved in the organisation, under the clear guidance of our senior leadership, to offer a sustainable event. We voluntarily align and demonstrate with international standards.
Still, we adhere to our policy and the objectives of our sustainability strategy, an effort that this year marks 30 years since the FIM decided to focus efforts on more respectful events that today are accelerators of Sustainable Development.
We move towards an event model emphasising the social and environmental dimension and recognising the positive impact on the region's economy.
This year again, our ATPI Halo departure will contribute, after searching for the best travel options, neutralising all the carbon emissions generated by the transportation of the participants, accommodation and logistics.
The event has been designed to find the best local solutions and minimise the environmental and climate footprint.
Enjoy the event and Ride Green!

 

FIM Sustainability Policy

We believe that sport should act as a role model and serve as a showcase to promote values and good practices, representing a significant contribution to the development of education, social cohesion, health and wellbeing and sustainable development. The practice of motorcycling as a means of transport or recreation continues to increase and should, therefore, be considered a contributor to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals.

Neutralisation

Excess carbon emissions that cannot be reduced will be neutralised through the purchase of carbon credits, sponsored by ATPI HALO.    
We will invest like last year in two big projects: " The Luangwa community forest project and Katingan Mentaya project"

" We are proud to be selected as the environmental sustainability partner to FIM for the second year running. ATPI’ s commitment to protect the environment and its  company  values  go  hand- in- hand  with those of the FIM and we are absolutely thrilled that ATPI Halo will be able to support this  fantastic federation once again."
