FIA Sustainability and D&I Report 2023

I am delighted to share the 2023 Sustainability and D&I Report.

This year, for the first time, we are integrating social and community impact reporting alongside our wider EDI strategy and overview.

At the FIA, we believe it is essential to comprehensively map and review our impact, in our efforts to create a brighter, more sustainable, and more inclusive future for tomorrow. We are doing this in a number of different ways.

Our work begins at home. We are working to reduce travel by our staff, promote homeworking opportunities and eco-friendly options within our office space.

In motor sport, we are focussed on net-zero – whether that’s through sustainable fuels and alternative technologies across our portfolio, like hybrid in Formula One, WRC and WEC, electric racing in alongside Formula E and World Rallycross, or greener freighting worldwide.

Alongside this, we have launched our new Sustainable Innovation Series, where we share knowledge alongside our World Championships partners, promoting best practice.

Meanwhile, our mobility colleagues are continuing to drive the sustainability agenda, by sharing advocacy best practice across our global FIA Member Club network.

As we look to the future, we know that we have a way to go. This journey will take time, and it will require the collaboration and dedication of all our stakeholders. However, I remain optimistic that we can create real and lasting change across both Sport and Mobility by leading from the front.

This report sets out our progress to tackle our emissions and carbon footprint over the past year, as well as our ongoing efforts to boost and improve our social impact going into 2024.

As I noted at the FIA Conference, social impact is a key issue for us. Heading into 2025, we will be integrating social impact into our Sustainability Roadmap, and holding ourselves accountable against strict diversity and inclusion targets.

We know that embracing EDI in motor sport isn’t just about fairness; it’s a strategic move to ensure the sport remains relevant and resilient. By fostering a diverse and inclusive culture, motor sport can harness fresh perspectives and innovative ideas, aligning with societal values and resonating with sponsors, partners, and fans.

I am confident that the FIA can be part of a positive future for our sport and wider society, helping to drive change and opportunity at every level across the sporting ecosystem. These targets – and reporting like the one below – will help us to track our progress and hold ourselves accountable on every step in our environmental and sustainability journey.
